Answer 1

110% = 36355

1%= 36355÷110

100%=36355÷110×100

         =33050

Answer 2

Greetings..!

Let salary of Vikram before be Rs x .

Increase = 10% of previous salary = 10% of x = (10/100)*x = Rs 10x/100

Increased salary = Previous + Increase = x + 10x/100= Rs 110x/100

ATP,

⇒110x/100 = 36355

⇒11x/10 = 36355

⇒11x = 36355*10 {transposing 10 to RHS}

⇒x = 363550/11

⇒x = Rs 33050

Answer :Hence, the previous salary was Rs 33050.
