Question

PLEASE ANY MY QUESTION URGENT
Deepak was to get a 50% hike in his pay but the computer operator wrongly typed the figure as 80% and printed the new pay slip. He received this revised salary for three months before the organization realized the mistake. What percentage of his correct new salary will get in the fourth month, if the excess paid to him in the previous three months is to be deducted from his fourth month?

Answer 1

Answer:

ANS IS 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume Deepak’s salary =10000

original hike (50%) amount = 5000 ; Revised salary =15000

Wrongly typed (80%) hike amount = 8000

Diff = 3000; For three months = 9000

Fourth Month Salary = 15000 - 9000=6000

15000 * x/100 = 6000 => x = 40%

Answer 2

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

if we take his salary to be 100 rupees then after wrong increase hie salary will become 180 rupees. for next three months he will receive this salary only.

so in totality 90 extra rupees has been given to him

therefor 90 rupees will be deducted from his original salary in the fourth month.

salary received in fourth month is= 150-90=60

percent=60/150*100=40%
