Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 1 : Rs. 25

Given:

Rita, Geeta, and Sita complete work = 6 days.

The total amount paid = Rs. 480.

The efficiency of Rita, Geeta, and Sita = 4 ∶ 5 ∶ 7.

Concept:

The amount of money earned is proportional to the amount of work done

Calculation:

According to the given question,

Total amount earned by A, B, and C in 6 days = Rs. 480

The amount earned by them in 1 day = 480/6 = Rs. 80.

Let us assume the work done by Rita, Geeta, and Sita are 4x, 5x, and 7x.

Total work done by three friends = 4x + 5x + 7x = 16x

Total work done by Geeta = 5x

According to the concept used,

The amount paid will be proportional to the amount of work done.

The daily income of Geeta = (5x/16x) × 80

⇒ Rs. 25.

 The daily income of Geeta is Rs. 25.
