- Let the salaries of A,B,C be x ,2x, 3x,
Then, 2x + 3x = 6000.
=> x = 1200.
=>A's salary = 1200.
B's salary = 2400.
C's salary = 3600.
Excess of C's salary over A's = (3600-1200)/1200 x 100 = 200% more than A's salary.
300 % denotes the salary of C is 300% of A and Question is about how much more. - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- let the salaries of A,B,C be x ,2x, 3x, then 2x+3x=6000
=>x=1200
=>As salary=1200, Bs salaries=2400 , Cs salaries= 3600.
Excess of Cs salaries over As=(3600/1200)x 100 = 300% - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(4)
- directly given ratio of A & C is 1:3
that means their difference of salary in percentage will be 300%. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- "more than" so solution is not "times more ie 300% "
but "more than"
so difference of two ie
(3x-x)/x ( below is x because than of a if than of c the divided by 3x
but for now ans--->200% - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- B:C = 2:3 Then 5 (2+3)= 6000
1 = 1200
then A=1200
and C = 3600
then ans is 200% more C to A.
So ans is d. - 4 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
