A worker earns a 5% raise. A year later, the worker
receives a 2.5% cut in pay, & now his salary is Rs.22702.68

What was his salary to begin with?

Answer Posted / guest

Assume his salary was Rs. X

He earns 5% raise. So his salary is (105*X)/100

A year later he receives 2.5% cut.
So his salary is ((105*X)/100)*(97.5/100)
which is Rs. 22702.68

So Ans is Rs.22176
