Answer:

Ali's salary is $50000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Jafar's salary be x.

(31/100)*x = 12400

x = (12400*100)/31

x = 400*100

x = $40000

Let Ali's salary be y.

y-[(20/100)*y] = 40000

y-(y/5) = 40000

(5y-y)/5 = 40000

4y = 200000

y = $50000

Convert 5.764764764... to a rational expression in the form of a/b where b=0
Valentin [98]
Say x=5.764---
Then 1000x=5764.764---
Then 1000x-x = 5759
So 999x = 5759
So x=5759/999

I don't see how b can be 0 in this case... what does that mean? You would never divide by 0 and live to tell about it, right?
