Math Problem Statement
Seorang supervisor menerima Rp.60.000 lebih banyak dari 2 kali yang diterima bawahanya per hari. Kalau supervisor bekerja 5 hari dan bawahanya 10 hari mereka menerima Rp.2.100.000. Berapa banyak penghasilan mereka masing-masing?
Solution
Let's denote the daily wage of the subordinate as (in Rp) and the daily wage of the supervisor as (in Rp).
According to the problem, the supervisor receives Rp 60,000 more than twice the subordinate's daily wage. This can be written as:
The total earnings for both over their respective working days are:
- The supervisor works 5 days, so their total earnings are .
- The subordinate works 10 days, so their total earnings are .
Together, their total earnings amount to Rp 2,100,000. Thus:
Now we have a system of two equations:
Let's substitute the first equation into the second equation:
Distribute and simplify:
Combine like terms:
Subtract 300,000 from both sides:
Divide both sides by 20:
Now, substitute back into the first equation to find :
So, the subordinate's daily wage is Rp 90,000 and the supervisor's daily wage is Rp 240,000.
To confirm, we can check the total earnings:
For the subordinate:
For the supervisor:
Total earnings together:
The calculations are correct. Thus, the subordinate earns Rp 90,000 per day and the supervisor earns Rp 240,000 per day.
