    Question

    Monil's monthly income is reduced by 18%. By approximate what percentage his monthly income must be increased so that it is again equal to his original monthly income?

    A.

    20%

    B.

    18%

    C.

    15%

    D.

    22%

    Correct option is D

    Given:
    Monil's income is reduced by 18%.
    Formula Used:
    If an income is reduced by x%, the required percentage increase to restore the original value is given by the formula:
    Required Increase = [x / (100 - x)] * 100
    Solution:
    Monil's income is reduced by 18%, so x = 18
    Required Increase = [18 / (100 - 18)] * 100 = [18 / 82] * 100 ≈ 21.95%
    Therefore, Monil's income must be increased by approximately 21.95% to restore it to the original amount.
