Answer 2

Answer:

The answer to the given question is The original salary is 1,40,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

A man for a 10% increase in his salary.

new salary is 1,54,000.

To find :

Original salary

Solution:

let us consider the original salary to be x.

first, we have to find the amount of salary increase.

The increased amount is found by

New Salary - original salary.

Then the amount increased is 154000-x

Formula to find the original salary is

$increase\% = \frac{increase}{original \: value} \times 100$

$10 = \frac{154000 - x}{x} \times 100$

Divide both sides by 100, and we get

$\frac{10}{100} = \frac{154000 - x}{x} \times \frac{100}{100}$

On simplifying

$\frac{1}{10} = \frac{154000 - x}{x}$

on cross-multiplying we get the values as

$x = 10(154000 - x) \\ x = 1540000 - 10x$

Let's add 10x to both sides of the equation.

$1540000 - 10x + 10x = x + 10x \\ 1540000 = 11x$

11 multiplying on the right divides the value on the left.

$\frac{1540000}{11} = 140000$

The value of x is 140000.
