Ryan spent ³₇ of his salary and gave $923 to his wife. Of the remaining amount, he saved ¹₃ of it and gave ³₁₀ of it to his grandparents. He then donated ²₃ of what he had left away and gave the remaining $35 to his son. What was Ryan's salary?

Spent	Wife	Saved	Grandparents	Donated	Son	Total
3 u	4 u					7 u
	$923	1 p	2 p
			3x3	7x3
				2x7	1x7
			9 b	14 b	7 b $35

Amount that his son received = 7 b

7 b = 35
1 b = 35 ÷ 7 = 5

Amount of his salary given to his grandparents, his donations and his son
= 9 b + 14 b + 7 b
= 30 b
= 30 x 5
= $150

2 p = 150 
1 p = 150 ÷ 2 = 75

Amount of his salary given to his savings, his grandparents, his donations and his son
= 1 p + 2 p
= 3 p
= 3 x 75
= $225

Amount of his salary given to his wife, his savings, his grandparents, his donations and his son
= 923 + 225
= $1148 

4 u = 1148 
1 u = 1148 ÷ 4 = 287

Ryan's salary
= 7 u
= 7 x 287
= $2009

Answer(s): $2009
