Answer/Solution

144%

Steps/Work

Even I got 96%
J = 100
T = 100*0.9 = 90
M = 90*1.6 = 144
If Mary's income is x percent of J
M = J*x/100
x = M*100/J = 144*100/100 = 144

Step by Step Solution

In order to solve problem, you must evaluate n₀ / 100 * (100 - n₁) + 100 - n₁.

n₀ =	60
n₁ =	10

n₀ / 100 * (100 - n₁) + 100 - n₁
Evaluate n₀ / 100 = 0.6
0.6 * (100 - n₁) + 100 - n₁
Evaluate 100 - n₁ = 90
0.6 * 90 + 100 - n₁
Evaluate 0.6 * 90 = 54
54 + 100 - n₁
Evaluate 100 - n₁ = 90
54 + 90
Evaluate 54 + 90 = 144
144
The answer to the problem and the result of n₀ / 100 * (100 - n₁) + 100 - n₁ is 144
