SOLUTION: If I made 122,000 dollars this year and that was a 7% increase from last year, what was I paid last year?
122,000 * 0.07 = 8540
122,000-8540 = 113,460
113,460 * 0.07 = 7942.2

Question 459991: If I made 122,000 dollars this year and that was a 7% increase from last year, what was I paid last year?
122,000 * 0.07 = 8540
122,000-8540 = 113,460
113,460 * 0.07 = 7942.2
113,460 + 7942.2 does not equal 7% increase
How do I find the 7% increase?
