Question

Example 5: A contractor pays 25% more to a male worker
than what he pays to the female worker. How much percent
less does the contractor pay to the female worker than the
male worker ?​

Answer 1

Answer:20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose he pays ₹100 to female worker. Then,

Male worker will be paid

125*100/100

₹125

Less paid =125-100=25

Less percentage paid =

25*100/125

1*20

20%

Answer 2

Let the contractor pays Rs 100 to the female

Then male will get Rs 125

more amount that male gets $=125-100$

                                     $=25$

Percentage amount male gets more $= \frac{25}{125} \times 100$

                                             $=20$%
