Answer:

36 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Imran's present salary be x

Decrease in 20 % = x - 20% of x

= x - 20/100 x

= 100x/100 - 20x/100

= 80x/100

Another 20 % Decrease = 80x/100 - 20% of 80x/100

= 80x/100 - 20/100 (80x/100)

= 80x/100 - 1600x/10000

= 80x/100 - 16x/100

= 64x/100

= 64/100 (x)

= 64 % of x

Present salary = x = 100% of x

Percentage Decrease (or) Percentage loss = 100 - 64 = 36 %
