    Explanation

    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
