Question

If salary of A is 65 % more than that of B and B's salary 33⅓% more than C. If sum of their salaries is 1728than find B's salary.

Answer 1

Answer:

Let B's Salary is Rs. 100. Then,

A's Salary = (100 + 25% of 100) = Rs. 125

Difference between A's Salary and B's Salary = 125 - 100 = Rs. 25

% Difference (lower) = 25125×100=20%

Answer 2

A ratio is an ordered pair of numbers a and b, written a / b where b does not equal 0. A proportion is an equation in which two ratios are set equal to each other

Let the salary of C be $x$ 60 Rs

So $B's$ salary$=33\frac{1}{3}$$=\frac{100}{3}\times60$

$=300$

A' salary $=65$ % more than B

So, $\frac{65}{100}\times 200$

$=130$

$A$.       B.       C

$330$     $200$   $60$

Total salary

$590$→$1728$

$1$→$2.9$

B's salary$=200\times 2.9$

$=Rs. 585.7$
