Question

Ankit was given an increatment on 10:percent on his salary ,his new salary is rupee 3575 .What was his salary before increament

Answer 1

$<b>Heya mate. (^_-). Solution below.$
====================================

• Let Ankit's salary before increment be 'x'.


• Then, increase in salary

= 10% of x

= 10/100 × x

= 1/10 × x

= x/10


• Now, increased salary

= x + x/10

= (10x + x)/10

= 11x/10



• Then, increased Salary = new salary

=> 11x/10 = 3575

=> x = 3575 × 10/11

=> x = 35750/11

=> x = 3250 Rs.
