Meeta saves ` 400 from her salary. If this is 10% of her salary. What is her salary?

Answer:

                Let her salary be ` P. Then, 10% of P = 400 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{10}{100}\times P=400\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{P}{10}=400\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[P=400\times 10\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[P=4000\] Hence, her salary is ` 4000.
