If the income of a man is decrease by 10% than .by how much percentage it should be increase to bring back to original income?
Let income is Rs X
income is reduced by 10% new income will be =(100-10)%of X=90% of X = 0.9x
it should be the same means X
difference =x-0.9x = 0.1X
increased percentage = difference x 100/min value
=0.1X(100)/0.9X
=100/9=11.1 %
Answer it should be increased by 11.1 %
