Question

11) Aman's salary was increased by 10%. If his new salary is 22,000 what was his previous salary?​

Answer 1

Answer:

If Aman's salary was increased by 10% and his new salary is 22,000 then his previous salary was rs 20,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Aman new salary 22,000

% increased = 10%

Previous salary is $= Rs. x$

New salary will be $= Rs.(x + 10% of x)$

$x + \frac{x}{10} = 22,000$

$\frac{11x}{10} = 22,000$

$x =22000 \times \frac{10}{11}$

$x = 20,000$
