Question

The salary of a person was increased by 15%. If his salary now is 9,936
initial salary?​

Answer 1

Answer:

• 8640

Step-by-step explanation:

• Let the initial salary be X
• X + 15% of X = 9936
• X + 15X/100= 9936
• 100X + 15X = 993600
• 115 X = 993600
• X= 993600/115 = 8640

Answer 2

hey buddy ,

there is your answer...

Let initial salary be x

Increment=15%of x=15/100 × x

New salary=x+15/100×x=115/100x

Now given that 115/100x=9936

x=9936×100/115=8640

And so initial salary is Rs 8,640
