Question

If X's income is 25% more than Y's income. By what percentage is Y's income less than X's income?​

Answer 1

Let y’s income = 100 units.

x’s income is 25% more than y’s income= 100+25=125/

y’s income compared to x’s income = (100/125)*100=80%.

Therefore, y’s income is 20% less than x’s income.
