Solution

The correct option is B
8% increase
8% की वृद्धि
Successive change formula is used.Here x=20,y=10 (decrease)
Percentage change =x+y+xy100=201020×10100=8% increase (as it is positive)

Alternative
New salary =1.2×(10.1)=1.2×0.9=1.08= 8% increase.

यहाँ क्रमिक परिवर्तन सूत्र का उपयोग किया जाएगा। यहाँ x=20,y=10 (कमी)

प्रतिशत परिवर्तन =x+y+xy100=201020×10100=8% की वृद्धि (क्योंकि यह धनात्मक है)

अन्य विकल्प

नया वेतन =1.2×(10.1)=1.2×0.9=1.08=8% वृद्धि
