ANSWER:
The monthly income of lauren is $2700
SOLUTION:
Given that, Lauren spends 30% of her monthly income on rent
Let the monthly income of lauren be x.
Then, 30% of x = rent payment -- eqn (1)
And also given that, lauren pays $810 for rent
rent payment = $810
Now, substitute rent payment in eqn (1)
30% of x =810
30% [tex]\times[/tex] x = 810
30/100 [tex]\times[/tex] x = 810
30 [tex]\times[/tex] x = 810 [tex]\times[/tex] 100
x = [tex]\frac{81000}{30}[/tex]
x = 2700
Hence, the monthly salary of lauren is $2700.
