Answer 2

Answer:

Percentage increase Radha’s salary more than Seeta’s = 60%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Radha's salary is 40% more than Seeta's salary

Percentage of raise in Radha's salary  = 50%

Percentage of raise in Seeta's salary = 30%

To find,

Percentage increase in Radha's salary compared with Seeta's salary

Recall the formula,

Percentage increase = $\frac{increase\ in\ value }{orginal\ value}$

Solution:

Let 'S' be Seeta's salary

Since Radha's salary is 40% more than Seeta's salary

Radha's salary = 40%S + S = S(1+40%) = 140%S

Hence, Before increment

Seeta's salary = S

Radha's salary  = 140%S

After increment

Since Radha got a raise of 50%,

Radha's salary after increment = 140%S +140%S×50%

=140%S(1+50%)

=140%S×150%

=$\frac{140}{100} X\frac{150}{100} XS$

=210%S

Seeta's salary after increment  = 30%S

After increment

Radha's salary = 210%S

Seeta's salary =  30%S

Difference in their salary = 210%S - 30%S =180%S

Percentage increase Radha’s salary more than Seeta’s  = $\frac{180 \%S }{30\%S} \%$ = 60%
