Julian spent ²₅ of his salary and gave $1209 to his wife. Of the remaining amount, he saved ¹₄ of it and gave ³₁₀ of it to his brothers. He then donated ²₃ of what he had left away and gave the remaining $42 to his daughter. What was Julian's salary?

Spent	Wife	Saved	Brothers	Donated	Daughter	Total
2 u	3 u					5 u
	$1209	1 p	3 p
			3x3	7x3
				2x7	1x7
			9 b	14 b	7 b $42

Amount that his daughter received = 7 b

7 b = 42
1 b = 42 ÷ 7 = 6

Amount of his salary given to his brothers, his donations and his daughter
= 9 b + 14 b + 7 b
= 30 b
= 30 x 6
= $180

3 p = 180 
1 p = 180 ÷ 3 = 60

Amount of his salary given to his savings, his brothers, his donations and his daughter
= 1 p + 3 p
= 4 p
= 4 x 60
= $240

Amount of his salary given to his wife, his savings, his brothers, his donations and his daughter
= 1209 + 240
= $1449 

3 u = 1449 
1 u = 1449 ÷ 3 = 483

Julian's salary
= 5 u
= 5 x 483
= $2415

Answer(s): $2415
