Question

decreased by 10%. Now by how much percent the income of Prateek is less than the income of Mayank?​

Answer 1

Solution :-

Let us assume that, 1 year ago income of prateek was Rs.100x .

then,

→ 1 year ago, Mayank income = 25% more than 100x = (125 *100x)/100 = Rs.125x .

Now,

→ Prateek present income = 5% increase than 100x = (105 * 100x)/100 = Rs.105x

and,

→ Mayank Present income = 10% decrease than 125x = (90 * 125x)/100 = Rs.112.5x

therefore,

→ Prateek present income less than Mayanak = 112.5x - 105x = Rs.7.5x .

Hence,

→ Required % = (7.5x * 100) / 112.5x = 6.67% (Ans.)
