M: C =3: 1 W: M: C =3: 6: 2 Ratio of efficiency man: women: child = 6: 3: 2 Ratio of men: women: child = 4: 3: 2 Number of men, women and child = 28, 21, 14 ∴ Ratio of work done by 28 men, 21 women and 14 children = (28 × 6): (21× 3): (14 × 2) = 168: 63:28 Hence Rs.23310 would be divided in this ratio. Amount for children = 90 x 28 =2520 Wage of a child is equal to 2520/14 = Rs 180
