Answer 1

⚡Hey mate⚡

✨Here is your answer✨

According to the question the salary of a person was reduced by 10%.

So let the original salary was 100 rupees per month.

And the salary reduced 10%.

10 % of 100 is

100 × 10 ÷ 100 = 10 rupees

New salary = 100 - 10

New salary = 90 rupees.


We have to Calculate what percent should his reduced salary be raised so as to bring it at par with his original salary.

Then

Formula - : reduce rupees ÷ new salary × 100

- : 10 ÷ 90 × 100

- : 11.11 %


Answere is 11.11 %.


I hope it's helpful for you. Thank you ❤️❤️

Answer 2

Answer:

The salary of the person should be raised by 11.11%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The salary of a person is reduced by 10%.

Let the original salary of the person be x ₹.

As 10% of his salary is reduced,his current salary would be,

$x - \frac{10}{100} x = \frac{90x}{100} = 0.9x$

Hence,his current salary is 0.1x.We are required to find the percentage by which his current salary must be increased to be at par with his original salary.

His original salary=x

Salary that must be increased=x-0.9x=0.1x

Therefore,the percentage by which his salary must be increased is

$\frac{0.1x}{0.9x} \times 100 = \frac{100}{9} = 11.11 \: percent$

Therefore,The salary of the person should be raised by 11.11%
