Question

Rakesh’s income is 25% more than that of Rohan’s income. What percent is Rohan’s income less than Rakesh’s income?

Answer 1

Let Rohan's income be Rs 100. Then, Rakesh's income $=Rs125.$
If Rakesh's income is Rs 125, Rohan's income$=Rs100$
IF Rakesh's income is Rs 1, Rohan's income $=Rs\frac{100}{125}$
If Rakesh's income is Rs 100, Rohan's income $=Rs(\frac{100}{125}\times 100)=Rs80.$
Now, difference between Rohan's'sn income$=Rs(100-80)=Rs20$
Hence, Rohan's income is 20% less than that of Rakesh.
