Answer 2

The % of the salary of the worker q for November is 50% greater than the salary in April.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The ratio of the salary of worker q for November to that of  April is $2: 1\frac{1}{3}$  .

To Find:

The % of salary of the worker q for November is greater than the salary of April.

Solution:

As given- The ratio of the salary of worker q for November to that of  April is  $2: 1\frac{1}{3}$ .

The ratio of the salary of worker q for November to that of  April is $2: \frac{4}{3}$ .

Multiply the numerator and denominator of the first ratio by 3, to make the denominator common.

$\frac{2\times 3}{3} = \frac{4}{3}$

$\frac{6}{3} =\frac{4}{3}$

$\frac{3}{3} =\frac{2}{3}$

It can be written as

$3:2$  

So, the ratio of the salary of worker q for November to that of April is $3:2$.

Let the salary of worker q in November is 3p and the salary of worker q in April is 2p.

The % of the salary of the worker q for November  is  greater than the salary of April

  $=\frac{(salary\ of\ November -\ Salary \ of April)}{Salary\ of April} \times 100$

  $= \frac{( 3p-2p)}{2p} \times 100$

   $=\frac{p}{2p} \times 100$  

   $=\frac{1}{2} \times 100$

   $= 50 \%$

Thus, the % of the salary of the worker q for November is greater than the salary of April is 50%.
