Fiona's salary was $3500. Fiona's salary was 7/10 of Howard's salary. If Howard's salary is decreased by 15% on next month, find the Howard's new salary.
Howard's salary = (10/7) (3500) = $5000
If Howard's is decreased by 15% he makes 85% of what he was making = 5000 (.85) = $4250
Fiona now makes 4250 (7/10) = $2975
