the wnee r will be 40%

let's say rakesh earns 100rs

then naturally 100 will be 100% and (100-40) 60% of it will be suresh ka earning which makes suresh earn rs 60 so 60 is 40% less than 100

Answer 2

Answer:

Earning of Suresh is 28.57% less than the earning of Rakesh.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,The earning of Rakesh is 40 percent$= 40\%$

more than the earning of Suresh.

Let earning of Suresh be x rupees.

So earning of Rakesh 40% more than the Suresh age$= x \times \frac{100 + 40}{100} = x \times \frac{140}{10} = \frac{7x}{5}$Rupees.

Earning of Rakesh is $\frac{7x}{5}$rupees.

Now question is how much percent the earning of Suresh is less than the earning of Rakesh.

Here Rakesh earning is main.

So Rakesh earning is 100%.

$\frac{7x}{5}$rupees means 100%

By unitary method,

1 rupees means $\frac{100}{ \frac{7x}{5} } \% = \frac{500}{7x} \%$

and $x$ rupees means $\frac{500}{7x} \times x = \frac{500}{7} = 71.43\%$

So,$(100 - 71.43)\% = 28.57\%$ earning of Suresh is less than the earning of Rakesh.
