Answer:

£8 889

Step-by-step explanation:

If a man earns 900% more than his original wage, it implies that the percentage of his original wage is 100% such that he earned 9 times his original wage. Thus 900/100 = 9

Therefore, his original wage is:

\frac{80000}{9}  = 8889

The man's original wage is £8 889

Check

£8 889 × 9 = £80 001, approximately £80 000.
