The average salary of management at a factory is $58,000 while the hourly workers have a mean yearly income 0f $21,500. If the ratio of hourly wage earners to managers is 85 to 7, what is the mean annual income of all employees at the factory?

Ratio of managers to hourly is 85 to 7
Total average salary is (85*58000 + 7*21500)/(85+7) = $55,222.83
