Total hours in a week he works for Rs. 2000/40= 50 rupees pee hour.
He is paid 2500 so I divide it by per day wage 50 and thus answer is 50....but in book it is 48 ....? Plz solve it

Here is the solution.
This person gets rs 50 per hour as 2000/40=50 rs
Now he gets 25% of rs 50 is
0.25*50=12.5 per hr
Now as per amount of work plus overtime he gets
50+12.5=62.5
The total wage he got is 2500 ,
2000 for 40 hrs and 500 is overtime , so we divide 500/62.5 is 8 hrs . He worked for 8 extra hours.
40+8=48 hrs
2000+500=2500 .
