✺ Given :

• salary of RAM is 33.33% more than Lakshman

✺ To Find :

• how much percent is Lakshman salary less than that of Ram.

✺ Explanation :

Let , the salary of Lakhsman is = X Rs.

∴ The salary of RAM

= X + 33.33% of X

= X (1+33.33%)

= X (1+ 33.33/100)

= (133.33X / 100 ) Rs

✺ Therefore :

∴ The salary of Lakhsman is less than by

= [( 133.33X/100)-X]

= [ 33.33X/100 ] Rs .

∴ The salary of Lakhsman is less than by

$\implies \dfrac{\dfrac{33.33X}{100}}{\dfrac{133.33X}{100}}\times 100\%$

$\implies \dfrac{33.33}{133.33}\times100\%$

$\implies 23\%$ (almost )

⠀⠀ ☛...Solution...☚⠀⠀

---☛ Let the salary of Laksham be x...

According to question...(salary of Ram)

• x + 33.33% of x

• x [ 1 + 33.33% ]

• x $1 + \dfrac{33.33}{100}$

• x × $\dfrac{100 + 33.33}{100}$

• x × $\dfrac{133.33}{100}$⠀

• $\dfrac{133.33x}{100}$⠀

The salary of Laksham...

• $\dfrac{133.33x}{100}-x$

• $\dfrac{133.33}{100}$

• $\dfrac{100x + 133.33x}{100}$

• $\dfrac{33.33x}{100}$

The salary of Laksham is less than of Ram's salary...

• $\dfrac{ \frac{33.33x}{100} }{ \frac{133.33x}{100} }\times 100\%$

• $\dfrac{33.33}{133.33}\times 100\%$

• ✂ 23%

Therefore, the Lakshman's salary 25 % less than of Ram's salary...
