Answer 2

Answer:

Datta's salary is $4.17$% more than Vikram's salary.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Vikram's salary is  $20$% more than that of Ajay and Ajay's salary is $20$% less than that of Datta.

To find:

Vikram's salary in comparison to Datta's salary.

Let the salary of Datta be x

Ajay's salary exists $20$% less than Datta

Ajay's salary $= x-0.2x$

$=0.8x$

Vikram's salary exists  $20$% more than Ajay

So, Vikram's salary$= 0.8x+0.2(0.8x)$

$=0.96x$

Difference between Datta and Vikram's salary $= x-0.96x$

$=0.04x$

So, Datta's salary is more than Vikram's by a percent

$=\frac{0.04 x}{0.96 x} \times 100$

$=4.17 \%$

Hence, Datta's salary is $4.17$% more than Vikram's salary.
