In other words the Principal is paying every teacher the new, higher, average salary. So you have to multiply that (minimal) increase by the number of teachers in the school to get the total increase in money that the principal pays.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-10009006670214035432011-10-11T17:24:13.791-04:002011-10-11T17:24:13.791-04:00You make an incorrect assumption that 75 teachers ...You make an incorrect assumption that 75 teachers make 100k and the other 75 teachers make 50k.
