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.
