Answer:

34000

Step-by-step explanation:

New Ratio = 40/57

Gap between numerator & denominator = 17

Original Ratio = 2/3

Gap between numerator & denominator = 1

=> Original Ratio can be restated as 34/51 to make gap of both ratios same.

Difference between two numerators OR denominators = 40 - 34 = 6 or 57 - 51 = 6

If gap is 6, sumit’s original salary = 51

If gap = 4000, sumit’s original salary is :

51/6 x 4000 = 34000
