Correct Answer - Option 4 : Rs. 38000
Given:
Ratio of salaries of Rajesh and Sunil = 2 : 3
Salary of each in increased by Rs. 4000
After increment of salary, ratio of salary becomes 40 : 57
Calculation:
Let the initial salaries of Rajesh and Sunil be 2x and 3x
Then, according to the question:
(2x + 4000)/(3x + 4000) = 40/57
⇒ 120x + 160000 = 114x + 228000
⇒ 6x = 68000
⇒ 3x = 34000
⇒ 3x + 4000 = 38000
∴ Sunil's present salary is Rs. 38000
