Question

Kyle saves 6% of his income for his new car. this year his salary was $6000 less than the previous year, and he saved $2745. what was his salary in the previous year?

Answer 1

0.06(x-6000) = 2745
0.06x - 360 = 2745
0.06 = 2745 + 360
0.06 = 3105

x = 3105 / 0.06

x = 51750

the answer is 51750, hope this helps
