Answer 2

Question :

Neetu  saves  Rs .500  from  her  salary.  If  this  is  8%  of  her  salary.  What  is  her  salary?​

---------

Before, finding the answer. Let's find out on how we can find the answer.

• To find out the total Salary, we must the formula of :

$\sf Total \: Salary = \dfrac{(x \: of \: salary) \times 100 }{percent}$

Here, we have to first multiply x of salary which is 500 with 100. Then, we have to divide it by percent .

Given :

• Saves = Rs. 500
• Percent = 8%

To find :

• Total Salary

Solution :

We know that,

$\sf Total \: Salary = \dfrac{(x \: of \: salary) \times 100 }{percent}$

                  $\sf = \dfrac{(500) \times 100 }{8}$

                  $\sf = \dfrac{50000 }{8}$

                  $\sf = 6250$

∴ Total Salary is Rs. 6250.
