Question 264294
Hello, 
Let's represent the salary as "x". Now we can set up an equation like this:
28% times x=$50,400 or this can be rewritten as:
.28x=50,400 Now divide .28 into both sides to get:
x=180,000
There we go! You made $180,000 Not too bad, although it's too bad we have to pay so much in taxes!
