Question

In a team of 75 employees, the average monthly sales per employee is ₹1.8 lakh. If 30 junior employees average ₹1.2 lakh each, what is the average monthly sales figure (in ₹ lakh) for the senior employees?

• A. ₹4.2 lakh
• B. ₹2.2 lakh
• C. ₹2.8 lakh
• D. ₹2.7 lakh

Answer 1

Answer:

B. ₹2.2 lakh

Total monthly sales of all employees:

$75\times1.8=135$

So, total sales = ₹135 lakh.

Sales by 30 junior employees:

$30\times1.2=36$

Sales by senior employees:

135 - 36 = 99

Number of senior employees:

75 - 30 = 45

Average sales per senior employee:

$\frac{99}{45}=2.2$

Therefore, the average monthly sales figure for senior employees is ₹2.2 lakh.
