or original). Find his original salary.
a) Rs. 36,000
b) Rs. 48,0000
Rs. 40,000 d) Rs, 42,000​

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is c) 40,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the person's original salary is Rs. x

Now according the question,

x+x×10%=44000

⇒ x+(x×10)/100 = 44000

⇒ x + x/10 = 44000

⇒ 11x/10=44000

⇒ x = (44000×10)/11

        = 40000

Ans: c) 40,000

Answer 2

X+10%ofX=44000

X+1/10 ofX=44000

11x/10=44000

11x=440000

X=40000

so ans is 40000
