Income of Sumit is first increased by 28.56%, but after few months his inconsistency in his work increases. Due to this he has been demoted and received a punishment pay cut of 33.33%. By what percent will the New Income of Sumit is less than the Initial Income?1. 14.28%2. 16.66%3. 11.11%4. 36.36%5. 37.5%

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 14.28%

Given:

Increase in income = 28.56%

Deduction in Income = 33.33%

Difference between increased income and present income = Rs. 3300

Concept Used:

In this type of questions, Percentage values should be changed into Fraction values.

Formula Used:

To change given % in fraction, we first convert the % into mixed fraction value.

\({\rm{Fraction\;value}} = \frac{{{\rm{Percentage\;given}}}}{{100}}\)

Representation done by fraction values will be taken as,

\({\rm{Fraction\;value}} = \frac{{{\rm{Increased\;value}}}}{{{\rm{Initial\;value}}}}\)

\({\rm{Percentage\;less}} = \frac{{{\rm{Difference\;between\;Initial\;and\;final\;value}}}}{{{\rm{Initial\;Value}}}}\; \times 100\)

Calculation:

Using Formula and concept,

\(\begin{array}{l} 28.56{\rm{\% }} = 28\frac{4}{7} = \frac{{200}}{7}\% \\ 33.33{\rm{\% }} = 33\frac{1}{3} = \frac{{100}}{3}\% \\ {\rm{Fraction\;value\;of\;}}28.56{\rm{\% }} = \frac{{\frac{{200}}{7}}}{{100}} = \frac{{200}}{{700}} = \frac{2}{7}\\ {\rm{Fraction\;Value\;of\;}}33.33{\rm{\% }} = \frac{{\frac{{100}}{3}}}{{100}} = \frac{{100}}{{300}} = \frac{1}{3}\; \end{array}\)

Suppose Income of Sumit be 7 Units then after increase of 2 Units

New Income = 7 + 2 = 9 Units

Deduction in salary in the ratio of 1/3

\({\rm{deducted\;amount}} = \frac{1}{3}\; \times 9 = 3\;{\rm{Units}}\)

New Salary = 9 – 3 = 6 Units

Difference in Initial and final Salary = 7 - 6 = 1 Unit

\({\rm{Final\;SalaryPercentage\;less\;than\;the\;Initial\;salary}} = \frac{1}{7}\; \times 100 = 14.28\% \)

∴ Final Salary of Sumit is 14.28% less than the Initial Salary.
