A, B and C receive a fixed salary in a company. Salary of A is what percent less than salary of B?
What are we finding??
\(\frac{A-B}{B}*100=(\frac{A}{B}-1)*100\)

(1) C receives a salary which is $400 more than that of A and $200 less than that of B.
C=A+400=B-200..
We can just say that B is 600 more than A but cannot find relative%
Insuff

(2) C receives a salary which is 22.22..% more than that of A and 8.33..% less than that of B.
Note: we have something in %. Likelihood of getting % through it..
22.22 is 200/9 and 8.33=25/3...
If you are to find a value, use these fractions but here we have to answer just Yes or No..
C=122.22*A=(100-8.33)*B=91.67B
\(\frac{A}{B}=\frac{91.67}{122.22}.........\)..
..\(\frac{A}{B}-1=\frac{91.67}{122.22}-1.........\)
We can find what we are looking for..
Suff

B
­Should'nt in the first statement it should be B-A/B*100, since A is less than B?
