Question
Arun saves 30% of his salary while Gagan saves 32%. If
both get the same salary and Gagan saves Rs. 1600, find the savings of Arun?Solution
Let the total salary each of them = Rs. x Arun saves = Rs. 30/100 x and Gagan saves = Rs. 32/100 x = 1,600 x = Rs. 5,000 ∴ Sohan saves = 30/100 × 5,000 = Rs. 1,500
