Question

If Anil's salary is $20\%$ less than Raju's salary, then by what percentage is Raju's salary more than that of Anil?

Answer 1

Let Raju's salary be Rs. 100.
Anil's salary is $20\%$ less than Raju's salary.
$\Rightarrow$ Salary of Anil = $80\%$ of 100 = Rs. 80
Raju's salary is Rs.20 more than that of Anil's.
$\Rightarrow$ Now, the required percentage = $\frac{20}{80}\left(100\right)\%$
$=25\%$
$\therefore$ Raju's salary is $25\%$ more than Anil's salary.
