Answer 2

Answer:

20 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the salary of Priya,

Given,

Neeta's salary is 25 percent more than Priya's salary,

⇒ Neeta's salary = 125 % of Priya's salary

$=\frac{125\times x}{100}$

$=1.25 x$

Thus, Priya's salary is less than Neeta's salary by the percentage,

$P=\frac{\text{Difference in their salaries}}{\text{Neeta's salary}}$

$=\frac{1.25 x-x}{1.25 x}\times 100$

$=\frac{0.25x}{1.25x}\times 100$

$=\frac{2500}{125}=20\%$

Hence, the Priya's salary is 20 % less than Neeta's salary.
