Half the difference between the salaries of Sushant and Prashant is equal to 3/10 of the sum of their salaries. Show the salary of Prashant with respect to the salary of Sushant. Correct Answer 25 percent

Calculation:

Let, salary of Sushant = x and salary of Prashant = y

According to the question,

⇒ (x ─ y)/2 = (x + y) × (3/10)

⇒ 5x – 5y = 3x + 3y

⇒ 2x = 8y

⇒ x/y = 4/1

The required percentage = (1/4) × 100 = 25%

∴ Salary of Prashant is 25% of Salary of Sushant.
