Set the two capitals, a percentage cut, a fixed annual salary, and the profit. The third step deliberately does it in the wrong order first, so the last step can show you how far apart the two answers land on the same question.
₹60,000 and ₹40,000, cut 10% of ₹20,000
12,800 and 7,200 · wrong order 12,000
Try ₹40,000 against ₹80,000 with a 25% cut: the manager ends up with exactly the same income as the sleeping partner, which is the classic equal-income question run forwards.
