Answer:

It is $140,000...

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is here!

Let the original salary of the man be x.

Then,

After a 10% increase in x, the new salary obtained is $154,000.

That means that,

=>x+ (10% of x) =$154,000

=>x+ (10x/100) =$154,000

=>x+ 0.1x =$154,000

=>1.1x =$154,000

=>x =$154,000/1.1

=>x =$140,000

Hence the original salary of the man is $140,000.
