What is the % change in his salary in 4 years ?COMSCIGUIDE
change = 100
error = 100• A = x % of B => if B = 100 then A = x• A = x % more than B => if B = 100 then A = 100 + x• A = x % less than B => if B = 100 then A = 100 – x• 100 % of any value is value itself.

1. In a class, the number of girls are 40% more than number ofboys. In an examination conducted in the class, 55 % of studentsfailed in the exam. If 48% of boys failed in the exam, then what isthe % of girls passed in the exam?
Ans :Number of girls = 40 % more than boysBoys Girls Total100 140 240
55% of students are failed in the exam . So 45 % of students are passed.Therefore total number of students passed are 108.

Boys Girls Total100 140 240 -> strength52 56 108 -> passed
Similarly 52 % of the boys passed in the exam. Total no of boys passed are 52.Number of girls passed = number of students passed - number of boys passed
= 108 – 52= 56.
Number of girls passed = 56.% of girls passed in the exam is 40%

% passed = 56ଵସ 100
In a company, 60% of employees are women. If 40% of men and35% of women employees are untrained. Then what % ofemployees in the company are trained?
2.
Women are 60%. Let the total number of employees are 100.=> Women are 60 and men 40
Men Women Total40 60 100 = Total24 39 63 = trained

The general method that most of them use is calculating the total sum every year.But it takes a lot of time.
1st year = 144002nd year = 19200 % change =21600−12000
ଵଶ 1003rd year = 17280 = 80 %4th year = 21600

Doing the same question in 10 sec :Initially assume some money which is easy for doing calculations. It need not be the given amount for this method. I am assuming the amount as 100.
100 120 160 144 180
80% increase
Now consider the difference between the final and initial value
20 40 16 36
Percentage increase in his salary = 80 COMSCIGUIDE
