Options:

Amit

None

Correct Answer:

Amit and Nitin

Explanation:

For Amit ,

Income From other sources except salary = 6000 + 1000 + 1800 = 8800

Required percentage =  \(\frac{8800}{35000}\) × 100 = 25.14%

For Suresh ,

Income From other sources except salary = 6300 + 1100 + 1950 = 9350

Required percentage =  \(\frac{9350}{38500}\) × 100 = 24.28%

For Nitin ,

Income From other sources except salary = 5000 + 1000 + 1400 = 7400 

Required percentage =  \(\frac{7400}{29000}\) × 100 = 25.51%

For Varun,

Income From other sources except salary = 7500 + 1240 + 1500 = 10240

Required percentage =  \(\frac{10240}{42000}\) × 100

= 24.38%

So , Salary of Amit and Nitin is  more than 25% .
