Question

An executive in an engineering firm earns a monthly salary plus a Christmas bonus of 7800 dollars.If she earns a total of 89100 dollars per year, what is her monthly salary in dollars?

Answer 1

Given:

Christms bonus = 7800

total earn in year =89100

So only salary is:

`\begin{gathered} salary=89100-7800 \\ =81300 \end{gathered}`

In a year ( 12 months) salary is 81300 so per month salary is:

`\begin{gathered} 12\text{ months salary is: 81300} \\ 1\text{ month salary is=}(81300)/(12) \\ =6775 \end{gathered}`

So monthly salary is 6775.
