Hii MATe ☺☺
Let's consider the salary of the officer =100
So, if the salary is increased by 25% then new salary =100+
100
25
×100
=100+25
=125
So, his new salary is 125
To make his salary original 25 must be subtracted from 123, then his salary will be 100 or original salary
So,
% decrease =
125
25 =51 ×100
Answer:
Hence, a decrease of 16.6% to the new salary will restore the original salary.
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking the sample value to be 100.
A 20% increase means 100*1.2=120.
Thus a total increase of 20.
Now let's find the ratio of 20 to 120 i.e., 20/120=0.1666.
Changing to percentage 0.1666*100=16.6%.
Hence, a decrease of 16.6% to the new salary will restore the original salary.
