Answer 2

The daily wages before increment is 12.5 Rs.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Given data

        Daily wages after increment (A) = 14 Rs.

        Rate of increment (R) = 12 %

• Let the daily wages before increment = P

        Amount of increment on P =12% of P

        It can be written as

        Amount of increment on P =12% of P $\mathbf{=\frac{12}{100}\times P}$

        Amount of increment on P  = 0.12× P

• Amount after increment = P + 0.12 P =1.12 P

• It is given that amount after increment  is 14 Rs.

        So

        1.12 P =14

        $\mathbf{P=\frac{14}{1.12}}$

        On solving, we get

        P =12.5 Rs =This is daily wages before increment.
