(a) 28th (b) 29th (c) 301h (d) 27th​

Answer 1

Answer:

(b) 29th

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are given the salaries of Anil and Happy respectively. 

We are also given their yearly increment.

What we need to find is, in which year, after they start their job, will Anil’s salary be more than that of Happy’s.

We are given options. Let’s start with the option that has the least number.

After 27th year:

Increment for Anil after 27 years = 27 x 2500 = 67500

Anil’s salary after 27 years = 50000 + 67500 = Rs 117500

Increment for Happy after 27 years = 27 x 2000 = Rs 54000

Anil’s salary after 27 years = 64000 + 54000 = Rs 118000

After 28th year:

Increment for Anil after 28 years = 28 x 2500 = Rs 70000

Anil’s salary after 28 years = 50000 + 70000 = Rs 120000

Increment for Happy after 28 years = 28 x 2000 = Rs 56000

Anil’s salary after 28 years = 64000 + 56000 = Rs 120000

After 29th year:

Increment for Anil after 29 years = 29 x 2500 = Rs 72500

Anil’s salary after 29 years = 50000 + 72500 = Rs 122500

Increment for Happy after 29 years = 29 x 2000 = Rs 58000

Anil’s salary after 29 years = 64000 + 58000 = Rs 122000

Therefore, Anil’s salary will more than that of Happy after the 29th year.

Answer 2

Answer:

29th

Step-by-step explanation:

Present difference between boths salary =14000

With each increment difference reduction=500

Totol years when difference will be zero=14000÷500=28th year

Thus from 29th year Anil will start earning more than Happy
