decrease percent=increasepercent-100/original AMT ×100=75%

jhamahesh11p50z9e: Let the salary be 100

jhamahesh11p50z9e: Let the original salary = 100
percent increase in salary =25%
Increased salary = 25% of 100 =100
New salary = 100 + 25 = 125
to bring back salary 100,
We need to decrease salary by 25 i .e 125 - 100 = 25.
percentage decrease in salary = 25/125 x 100 = 20% so salary should be decreased by 20% to restore previous salary

Let the original salary be ₹ 100 then salary after increase = ₹ 125
Salary to be reduced to bring it to original =(125 - 100)/125 x 100 = 2500/125 = 20%
