This Question has 1 answers.
Let number of non-officers = a,
Then Total salary of officers = 15 × 460 = 6900,
Total salary of non-officers = a × 110.
Total salary of all employees = 120 × (15 +a)
Then,
Salary of all employees = Salary of officers + Salary of non-officers
120 × (15 + a) = 15 × 460 + 110a
1800 + 120a = 6900 + 110a
120a – 110a = 6900 – 1800
10a = 5100
a = 510
Hence, number of non-officers = 510
