Answer 2

Answer:

His original salary is Rs. 90,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the Initial salary

Initial salary + 15% of initial salary = New Salary

x + 15%(x) = 103500

x + (15/100)(x) = 103500

x + (3/20)(x) = 103500

x + 3x/20 = 103500

(20x + 3x)/20 = 103500

23x = 103500 × 20

23x = 2,070,000

x = 2070000/23

x = 90,000

=> Rs. 90,000 was his initial salary
