The monthly salaries of A and B are in the ratio 11 : 21. If both of them get a salary increment of Rs. 4000 per month, the new ratio becomes 3 : 5. What is the new monthly salary of A?1). Rs. 110002). Rs. 150003). Rs. 25004). Rs. 22000

Answer»

Let the monthly salaries of A and B be 11x and 21X.

According to the condition,

⇒ [(11x + 4000)/(21x + 4000)] = 3/5

⇒ 55x + 20000 = 63x + 12000

⇒ 63x - 55x = 20000 - 12000

⇒ 8x = 8000

X = 8000/8 = 1000

NEW monthly salary of A = 11 × 1000 + 4000 = Rs. 15,000
