Question

the salary of an employee was increased by 7% if his present salary is Rs 9630 find his salary before increment

Answer 1

Let previous salary be X
×+7×/100=9630

107×/100=9630

×=9630×100/107

×=9000

Answer 2

Present salary= Rs. 9630

Percent of salary increase= 7%

Let the salary before increment be x

Then, x+7x ÷100= 9630

(7x +100x)÷100=9630

107x÷100=9630

107x=9630×100

107x=963000

x= 963000÷107

x=9000

Therefore, the salary of an employee before increment was Rs. 9000.
