Question

Naveen got an increment of 15% in his salary. If his enhanced salary is 14030. What was his original salary?

Answer 1

suppose his original salary = x
then, his increment salary is = x × 15%
= 15x ÷ 100
so his enhanced salary is = x+(15x ÷ 100)
but according the question his enhanced salary is = 14030
SO
x+(15x÷100) = 14030
=(100x + 15x )÷ 100 = 14030
= 115x = 14030 × 100
x = 1403000÷ 115
x = 12200
so Navin's original salary is 12200

Answer 2

Answer:

12200

Step-by-step explanation:

let the original salary be =x

15% × x

15/100× x =3x/20

add then add in x

3x/20 + x

=20x + 3x/20

= 23x/20 =14,030

x =20 ×14,030/23

20×610 = 12200 Answer

Answer = 12200
