Answer 1

Answer:

Rohan income is 20 % less than Rakesh.

Step by step explanation:

Hey Mate,

Suppose,

Rohan income = Rs. 100

Rakesh Income = 25 % more than Rohan

= > 100 + ( 100 × 25/ 100 )

= > 100 + 25

= > Rs. 125

Rakesh Income = Rs. 125

Difference = Rs. ( 125 - 100 ) = Rs. 25

L% = ( 25/ 125 ) × 100

L% = 20 %

Rohan income is 20 % less than Rakesh.

Answer 2

Rohan's income is 20% less than the Rakesh's income.

Given:

Rakesh's income is 25% more than that of Rohan's income.

To find:

How much percent of Rohan's income less than Rakesh's income?

Solution:

Let us assume, Rakesh's total income is Rs 100.

It is 25% more than the Rohan's income.

$Then \ Rohan's \ income =\left(\frac{100}{100+25}\right) \times 100$

$=\frac{100}{125} \times 100$

$=0.8 \times 100$

$\Rightarrow Rohan's \ income = Rs \ 80$

To find the Rohan's income less than the Rakesh's income in percentage,

$\Rightarrow\left(\frac{100-80}{100}\right) \times 100$

$\Rightarrow\left(\frac{20}{100}\right) \times 100$

$\Rightarrow 0.2 \times 100$

$\Rightarrow 20 \%$

Explanation:

Let us assume, Rakesh's total income is 100 Rupees. It is 25% more than the Rohan's income. Then using formula, it has found that the income of Rohan is 80 Rupees. To find the less in income in percentage by finding the difference between theirs income is 20 Rupees.

Finally,it is found that Rohan's income is 20% less the Rakesh's income.
