Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The salaries are the same. Only the fraction of how much is saved is quite different.
Equation
x ( 9/11 - 7/9) = 1584
Explanation: The salary amount is x. The fractional amounts saved are also given. You have to take the difference because one of the people saves more than the other.
The amount that is more is 1584.
Solution
9/11 = 0.8182
7/9 = 0.7778
9/11 - 7/9 = 0.8182 - 0.7778 = 0.0404
Put that into the equation.
x(0.0404) = 1584 Divide by 0.0404)
x(0.0404) = 1584/0.0404
answer:x = 39204
