Fraction of the salary spent on the food processor =
213 Fraction of the salary on the remainder
= 1 -
213 =
1113 Fraction of the remainder on savings
= 1 -
111 =
1011 Total salary = 13 u
Amount spent on the food processor = 2 u
Amount spent on the kettle = 1 u
Amount of savings = 10 u
10 u = 810
1 u = 810 ÷ 10 = 81
Anna's salary
= 13 u
= 13 x 81
= $1053
