Hi guys, I found this question in a book which does not have the OA.
A's income decreased from 75000$ to 60000$ while B's income increased from 60000$ to 75000$. What percentage of decrease in A's income is the increase in B's income?
1)125% 2)75% 3)133% 4)100%
Well from the wording of the question, answer was straight forward-100%. But I guess the question intended to be something like "what percentage of percentage decrease in A's income is the percentage increase in B's income?, the answer would be 125%.
