    wats this ????
    suppose original salary be Rs.100
    then his salary was decreased by 50%, so, his salary becomes Rs.50 (according to the question)
    Later, his salary was increased by 50%, so his new salary be Rs.75.
    to conclude, his salary loss percent is (100-75)/100 * 100
    finally, 25% is his loss.
