I think that this should be the right answer
Answer:
Salary = Rs. 16,500
Explanation:
Present salary of Priya = Rs. 15,000
Percentage of increase in salaries of Priya and her friends = 10 % of the overall amount, as per the problem.
Hence, on Percentage calculation we get:
10 % of Rs 15,000
= 10/100 of Rs. 15,000
= 10/100 X Rs. 15,000
= Rs 1500. (Amount increased in salary).
So, the final salary would be:
earlier salary added to increased amount
i.e. Rs. 15,000 + Rs. 1500
= Rs. 16,500
