1. A union contract specifies a 6 percent salary increase plus a Tk. 450 bonus for each employee. For a certain employee, this is equivalent to 8 percent salary increase. What was this employee's salary before the new contract?
- A. Tk. 21,500
- B. Tk. 21,500
- C. Tk. 21,500
- D. Tk. 21,500
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Suppose, employee's salary before the new contract was = X
as per condition,
6% salary increase + 450 = 8% salary increase
8% salary increase - 6% salary increase = 450
2% salary increase = 450
2% of X = 450
2X/100 = 450
X = 22500
So, Employee's salary before the new contract was = 22500 tk (Ans.)
