Vinod's and Javed's salaries are in the proportion of 4 : 3 respectively. What is Vinod's salary ?
Statements:
1. Javed's salary is 75% that of Vinod's salary.
2. Javed's salary is Rs 4500
Answer: B
Statement 1 is merely an interpretation of the information contained in the question.
However, Vinod's salary can be ascertained from 2 as follows : Let Vinod's and Javed's salaries be 4x and 3x respectively. Then, 3x = 4500 or x = 1500. Therefore Vinod's salary = 4x = Rs. 6000.
