Answer 2

Answer:

Ajay's income 25% more than that of Akshay.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is Akshay's income is 20% less than Ajay.

Let Ajay's income is x. So income of Akshay is

$Akshay=x-\frac{20}{100}x=x-0.2x=0.8x$

% of Ajay's income is more than Akshay,

$\%=\frac{\text{Ajay's income-Akshay's income}}{\text{Akshay's income}}\times 100$

$\%=\frac{x-0.8x}{0.8x}\times 100$

$\%=\frac{0.2x}{0.8x}\times 100$

$\%=\frac{1}{4}\times 100$

$\%=25\%$

Therefore, income 25% more than that of Akshay.
