The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to find out how much percentage Shyam's income is less than Ram's income given that Ram's income is 10% more than Shyam's income. ### Step 1: Define the incomes Let's assume Shyam's income is \( S \). ### Step 2: Calculate Ram's income Since Ram's income is 10% more than Shyam's income, we can express Ram's income \( R \) as: \[ R = S + 0.10S = 1.10S \] ### Step 3: Find the difference between Ram's and Shyam's income The difference between Ram's income and Shyam's income is: \[ R - S = 1.10S - S = 0.10S \] ### Step 4: Calculate the percentage difference To find out how much percentage Shyam's income is less than Ram's income, we use the formula: \[ \text{Percentage difference} = \left( \frac{R - S}{R} \right) \times 100 \] Substituting the values we have: \[ \text{Percentage difference} = \left( \frac{0.10S}{1.10S} \right) \times 100 \] ### Step 5: Simplify the expression The \( S \) in the numerator and denominator cancels out: \[ \text{Percentage difference} = \left( \frac{0.10}{1.10} \right) \times 100 \] ### Step 6: Calculate the final value Now, calculating \( \frac{0.10}{1.10} \): \[ \frac{0.10}{1.10} = \frac{10}{110} = \frac{1}{11} \] Thus, \[ \text{Percentage difference} = \left( \frac{1}{11} \right) \times 100 \approx 9.09\% \] ### Final Answer Shyam's income is approximately 9.09% less than Ram's income. ---
