Answer 1

Hey,

Thanks for asking this question.

Here is the required answer :-

Given,
Ramesh's income<---20% less--- Suresh's income

Let Suresh income be 100.

Now,
Ramesh's income = 100 - 20% of 100
= 100 - (20/100) × 100
= 100 - (1/5)×100
= 100 - 20
= 80

Hence,

The difference of Suresh's income and Ramesh's income = 100 - 80
= 20

We can also say that,

Suresh's income is 20 more than Ramesh's income.

Now,



Percent by which Suresh's income is more than that of Ramesh = (20/100)×100
=(1/5)×100
=20%

Hope it helped.
