Question

Naveen got an increment of $15\%$ in his salary. If his salary is $Rs.14030$, what was his original salary?

Answer 1

Let the original salary be $x$.

As his salary is incremented by $15\%$

So,

$115\%\times x=14030x=\frac{140430\times 100}{115}⟹x=12200$

Hence his original salry is $Rs.12,200$.
