Answer 2

       $\text{\huge \bf \underline{Answer:}}$

       $\text{It is given that Ajay's salary is }37.5\% \text{ more than Vijay's}$

       $\text{Let Vijay's salary be Rs. 100}$

$\implies \text{Ajay's salary} = 100 + \text{\huge{(}}\dfrac{37.5}{100}\times 100\text{\huge{)}}$

$\implies \text{Ajay's salary} = 100 + 37.5$

$\implies \text{Ajay's salary} = \text{Rs. }137.5$

$\implies \text{Difference in their salaries} = 137.5 - 100 = \text{Rs. }37.5$

$\implies \text{Percentage difference} = \dfrac{\text{Difference}}{\text{Greater amount}}\times 100$

$\implies \text{Percentage difference} = \dfrac{37.5}{137.5}\times 100$

$\implies \text{Percentage difference} = \dfrac{375}{1375}\times 100$

$\implies \text{Percentage difference} = \dfrac{37500}{1375}$

$\implies \text{Percentage difference} = 27.27\%$

  $\therefore \: \: \boxed{\boxed{\text{Vijay's salary is 27.27\% less than Ajay's}}}$
