(B) Let Sunil's salary be $₹ x$.Sunil decided to donate $5 \%$ of his salary,which is $\frac{5x}{100} = \frac{x}{20}$.He donated $₹ 1687.50$,which is $75 \%$ of the amount he initially decided to donate.So,$1687.50 = 75 \% 	ext{ of } (\frac{x}{20})$.$1687.50 = \frac{75}{100} 	imes \frac{x}{20}$.$1687.50 = \frac{3}{4} 	imes \frac{x}{20} = \frac{3x}{80}$.$3x = 1687.50 	imes 80$.$3x = 135000$.$x = \frac{135000}{3} = 45000$.Therefore,Sunil's salary is $₹ 45000$.

Sunil decided to donate $5 \%$ of his salary. On the day of donation,he changed his mind and donated $₹ 1687.50$,which was $75 \%$ of what he had decided earlier. How much is Sunil's salary?
