      Solution

      Total wage of 20 labourers in the initial group = 20 ├Ч 420 = Rs. 8400 New average wage of the group = 420 + 50 = Rs. 470 New number of labourers in the group = 20 тАУ 4 + 2 = 18 So, according to the question, 8400 тАУ 4 ├Ч 300 + 2K = 470 ├Ч 18 Or, 8400 тАУ 1200 + 2K = 8460 Or, 7200 + 2K = 8460 Or, 2K = 8460 тАУ 7200 = 1260 Or, K = (1260/2) = 630
