प्रश्न

A man got a 10% increase in his salary. If his new salary is Rs 1,54,000, find his original salary.

उत्तर

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 xx x = 154000`

`(110x)/100 = 154000`

x= `(154000 xx 100/110)`

x = 140000

Thus, the original salary was Rs 1,40,000.
