One year ago, the ratio between Mahesh’s and Suresh’s salaries was 3 : 5. The ratio of their individual salaries of last year and present year are 2 : 3 and 4 : 5 respectively. If their total salaries for the present year are Rs. 43000, what is the present salary of Mahesh? Correct Answer Rs. 18000

Let Mahesh’s previous year salary be 3x

Suresh’s previous year salary be 5x

Mahesh’s present year salary = 3x × 3/2 = 9x/2

Suresh’s present year salary = 5x × 5/4 = 25x/4

25x/4 + 9x/2 = 43000

⇒ x = Rs. 4000

Present salary of Mahesh = 9 × (4000/2) = Rs. 18000
