Answer:
$27,300
Explanation:
Let husband's salary be x
Wife's salary is 15% more than husband's salary. This implies that wife's salary is 15% of x plus x.
Wife's salary = 0.15x + x
= 1.15x
Sum of their salaries = $58,695
Substituting the values in the equation:
58,695 = 1.15x + x
2.15x = 58,695
x = $27,300
Husband's annual salary is computed as $27,300
