A man got a 10% increase in his salary. If his new salary is Rs 1,54,000, find his original salary |
|
Answer» Let the original salary be x. It is given that the new salary is Rs 1,54,000. Original salary + Increment = New salary However, it is given that the increment is 10% of the original salary. Therefore, x + 10/100 X x = 154000 100x/100 = 15400 x = ( 154000 X 100/100 ) x = 140000 Thus , the original salary war Rs 1,40,000. |
