A bricklayer charges ₦1,500 per day for himself and ₦500 per day for his assistant. If a two bedroom flat was built for ₦95,000 and the bricklayer worked 10 days more than his assistant, how much did the assistant receive?
N20,000
N28,000
N31,200
N41,000
Correct answer is A
Let the number of days worked by the assistant = t
∴∴ The bricklayer worked (t + 10) days.
1500(t + 10) + 500(t) = N 95,000
1500t + 15,000 + 500t = N 95,000
2000t = N 95,000 - N 15,000
2000t = N 80,000
t = 40 days
∴∴ The assistant worked for 40 days and received N (500 x 40)
= N 20,000
