Correct Answer: Rs. 5500
Solution : The ratio of their salaries is 5 : 6 : 8. Let the salaries of P, Q, and R be 5x, 6x and 8x, respectively. Since the salary of R = Salary of Q + Rs. 2200 Now, 8x = 6x + 2200 ⇒ 2x = 2200 ⇒ x = 1100 So, the salary of P = 5x = 5 × 1100 = Rs. 5500 Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 5500.
