We know that the wages are distribute in the proportion of contribution to the total work done.
∴ Contribution of Sabu to total work = \(\frac{\text{Wages of sabu}}{\text{Total wages distributed}}\) × Total work
⇒ Contribution of Sabu to total work \(\frac{320}{1600}\) × 1 = \(\frac{1}{5}\)
∵ Sabu did \(\frac{1}{5}\) part of total work in 4 days,
∴ Part of work done by Sabu in one day = \(\frac{1}{5 \times 4} = \frac{1}{20}\)
Let us assume Pinki and Billu can together complete the work in T days
Then part of work done by Pinki and Billu in one day = \(\frac{1}{T}\)
Also part of work done by Sabu, Pinki and Billu in one day = \(\frac{1}{T} + \frac{1}{20}\)
Total work done in 20 days = (part of work done by Sabu, Pinki and Billu in one day) × 4 + (part of work done by Pinki and Billu in one day) × 16
\(\Rightarrow 1=\left(\frac{1}{T}+\frac{1}{20}\right) \times 4+\frac{1}{T} \times 16\)
\(\Rightarrow 1=\frac{4}{T}+\frac{4}{20}+\frac{16}{\mathrm{~T}}\)
\(\Rightarrow 1-\frac{4}{20}=\frac{4+16}{T}\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{20-4}{20 \times 20}=\frac{1}{T}\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{1}{T}=\frac{1}{25}\)
So Billu and Pinki can complete the work in 25 days
Now calculating Rs/day spent by payer in both cases
Case I: when Sabu worked for 4 days out of 20 days.
Rs/day spent by payer = \(\frac{1600}{20}\) = Rs 80
Case II: when only Pinki and Billu worked for 25 days
Rs/day spent by payer = \(\frac{1600}{25}\) = Rs 64
Difference in Rs/day spent by payer in both the cases = 80 - 64 = Rs. 16
