Answer 1

Answer:

10.40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let assume x=4, y=5.

Total salary all = 140%

Total Salary all in Rs= 1020000

% ?

X = 140/4= 35, Y = 140/5= 28 =X-Y=7

= 1020000/140*7*100

= 1020000/98000 = 10.40*4=41.6%

Answer 2

The salary of the officer is 200% more than the salary of a clerk.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The ratio of number of officers  to number of clerks is 4:5.

Let the number of officers are 4x and number of clerks are 5x.

Let the salary of officer is represented by y and the salary of the clerk is z.

Total salary  of all the officers is 140% more than  the total salary of clerks.

4x × y =(z+1.40z)5x                

4xy=(2.4z)(5x)

4xy=12zx

y=3z

Therefore required percentage is:

$Percentage=\frac{3z-z}{z}\times 100 =200\%$

Hence, the salary of the officer is 200% more than the salary of a clerk.
