Question

Nikhil's income is $20\%$ less than that of Akhil. How much percent is Akhil income more than that of Nikhil's.

Answer 1

Let the income of Akhil be $Rs.100.$

Then the income of Nikhil will be 20% less than Akhil $=100-20\%$ of $100=Rs.80.$

Therefore, Akhil's Income is more than Nikhil's by $=100-80=Rs.20$

Therefore, the required $\%$(Akhil's Income is more than Nikhil's)

$=\frac{\text{Difference in income}}{\text{Nikhil's Income}}\times 100\%=\frac{20}{80}\times 100\%=25\%$

Therefore Akhil's income is $25\%$ more than the Nikhil's income.
