Given : Lisa's salary is 60% more than Paul's salary. Lisa got an increment of 30% on her salary while Paul got an increment of 35% on his salary.
To Find : By what percentage is Lisa's incremented salary more than Paul's incremented salary
Solution:
Paul salary = 100P
Lisa salary = 100P + (60/100)100P = 160P
Lisa increment = (30/100)160P = 48P
Lisa incremented Salary = 160P + 48P = 208P
Paul increment = (35/100)100P = 35P
Paul incremented Salary= 100P + 35P = 135P
208P - 135P = 73P
percentage is Lisa's incremented salary more than Paul's (73P/135P) * 100
= 54.07 %
= 54 %
