Question

an assistant receives a 10% raise bringing the salary to $47,028 what was the salary before the raise?(round to the nearest dollar)

Answer 1

47,028/1.1 = $42,752.73

42,752 + .1(42,752) = 42,752 + 4,275 = 47,027

42,753 + .1(42,753) = 42,753 + 4,275 = 47,028

go with $42,753= original salary rounded to nearest dollar
