Solution:
Let the salary of Mr.Y be Rs.100
Given: Mr.X's salary is 30% more than the salary of Mr.Y .
So, Salary of Mr. X = 100 + 100(30/100)
= 100 + 30
Mr.X's salary = Rs.130
So, Mr.X's salary = Rs.130
Mr.Y's salary = Rs.100
Mr.Y's salary is less than the salary of Mr.X by Rs.30.
This percentage is,
=> (30/130) × 100
= 23 1/13 %
So, the correct option is C). 23 1/13%
