Hi, there--
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Let the variable x be the employee's TOTAL salary.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Represent 70% as a decimal number.
\n" ); document.write( "70% is 70 out of 100, or 0.70
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "In algebra, \"$1330 is 70% of the total salary,\" can be written as
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"1330=0.70%2Ax\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Now solve for x. Divide both sides of the equation by 0.70.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"1330%2F0.70=%280.70%2Ax%29%2F0.70\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"1900=x\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "In the context of this problem, 1900=x means that the employee's total salary is $1900.
\n" ); document.write( ".
