To solve the problem step by step, let's break it down into manageable parts. ### Step 1: Calculate My Brother's Salary My salary is ₹12,345. My brother's salary is 10% greater than mine. **Calculation:** - 10% of my salary = 10/100 * 12,345 = ₹1,234.50 - My brother's salary = My salary + 10% of my salary - My brother's salary = ₹12,345 + ₹1,234.50 = ₹13,579.50 ### Step 2: Calculate My Sister's Salary My sister's salary is 9.09% greater than my brother's salary. **Calculation:** - 9.09% of my brother's salary = 9.09/100 * 13,579.50 = ₹1,233.77 (approximately) - My sister's salary = My brother's salary + 9.09% of my brother's salary - My sister's salary = ₹13,579.50 + ₹1,233.77 = ₹14,813.27 (approximately) ### Step 3: Calculate the Total Salary of My Brother and Sister Now, we need to find the total salary of my brother and sister together. **Calculation:** - Total salary = My brother's salary + My sister's salary - Total salary = ₹13,579.50 + ₹14,813.27 = ₹28,392.77 (approximately) ### Step 4: Calculate My Wife's Salary My wife's salary is 56 12/23% less than the total salary of my brother and sister together. **Convert 56 12/23% to a decimal:** - 56 12/23% = 56 + (12/23) = 56.5217% (approximately) - In decimal form = 56.5217/100 = 0.565217 **Calculation:** - My wife's salary = Total salary - (56.5217% of Total salary) - My wife's salary = Total salary * (1 - 0.565217) - My wife's salary = ₹28,392.77 * (1 - 0.565217) = ₹28,392.77 * 0.434783 = ₹12,344.66 (approximately) ### Step 5: Compare My Wife's Salary to My Sister's Salary Now, we need to find out if my wife's salary is greater than, less than, or equal to my sister's salary. **Comparison:** - My sister's salary = ₹14,813.27 (approximately) - My wife's salary = ₹12,344.66 (approximately) ### Conclusion My wife's salary is less than my sister's salary.
