(A) 15 days
(B) 5 days
(C) 10 days
(D) 20 days
Correct Answer - Option(C)
Explanation by: Vikash Gupta
Let the person did not work for x days.
It means that he worked for (50 - x) days.
∴ Find for being absent = ₹ 6x
Wages for working days = 12 (50 - x)
According to the question,
Received wages = 12(50 - x) - 6x = 420
⇒ 600 - 12x - 6x = 420
⇒ 18x = 600 - 420 = 180
∴ x = 180/18 = 10 days
