Question

Raju earns a fixed monthly salary.Last month he saved 20% of it. This month he saved 20% less than what he saved last month. The difference between the two months is $200. What is his monthly salary?

Answer 1

Answer:

1250

Step-by-step explanation:

let the salary be x

then 20% of x =0.2x

now

20% of 0.2x = 0.04x

now according to question

0.2x-0.04x=200

0.16x=200

x=200/0.16

x=1250
