also give him a bag at the end of the yr. He served for 9
months and was given a turban and Rs 65. So the price of
turban is i. Rs :
10 19 0 55

Answer Posted / nikita

Because the servant didn't serve the full year, he didn't get the bag.
The servant only served 9 months of the year, which is 9 months out of 12, or 9/12 of a year, which is 3/4 of the year.
So the man should have paid the servant 3/4 of 90, which is 75.
Instead, he paid 65 and a turban. The turban must make up for the missing money.
