Question 35
If A gets 50% more salary than B, then B gets how much percentage less salary than A ?
Solution
Given, A gets 50% more salary than B
$$\Rightarrow$$ A = $$\frac{150}{100}$$B
$$\Rightarrow$$ A = 1.5B
Percentage of B's salary less than A's salary = $$\frac{A-B}{A}\times100$$
= $$\frac{1.5B-B}{1.5B}\times100$$
= $$\frac{0.5}{1.5}\times100$$
= $$\frac{1}{3}\times100$$
= $$33\frac{1}{3}\%$$
