Question 64

Salaries of Ravi and Sumit are in the ratio 2:3. If the salary of each is increased by ₹3000, the new ratio becomes 35:50. What is Sumit's new salary?

Solution

Let the salaries of ravi and sumit be 2x and 3x
salaries increased by 3000
new salaries are 2x+3000 an 3x+3000
ratio =7:10
(2x+3000)/(3x+3000)=7/10
20x+30000=21x+21000
x=9000
Sumit's new salary=3(9000)+3000
=30000
