Question

Meeta saves $₹4000$ from her salary. If this is $10\%$ of her salary. What is her salary?

Answer 1

Find the Meeta's salary.

Given, Meeta saves $₹4000$ from her salary and this is $10\%$ of her salary.

Let her salary is Rs.$x$.

Therefore,

$$\begin{gathered} 10\%\mathrm{of}x=4000 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{10}{100}\times x=4000 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{1}{10}\times x=4000 \\ \Rightarrow x=40000\mathrm{Rupees} \end{gathered}$$

Hence Meeta's salary is $₹40000$.
