Question

a man got 10% increased in salary. if his new salary is rs 55000. find his previos salary​ please answer it fast​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the salary before the increment be Rs.100. Then,

Increase in salary =Rs.10

∴ Increased salary =Rs.(100+10)=Rs.110

If increased salary is Rs. 110, original salary =Rs.100

If increased salary is Rs. 154000, original salary =Rs.(

110

100

×154000)=Rs.140000

Hence, the salary of the man before increment was Rs.140000.

Answer 2

Let the original salary be = x

∴ Increase in salary = 10% of ₹ x

= ₹ $\frac{10}{100}$

x = ₹ $\frac{x}{10}$

New salary = Rs x + Rs $\frac{x}{10}$ = Rs $\frac{x}{11}{10}$

∴ Rs $\frac{x}{11}{10}$ = Rs 154000

or,

x = $\frac{154000×10}{11}$ = ₹ 1,40,000

∴ His salary is 1,40,000.
