Given:
Mr. Donovan
2/7 = savings
5/7 = $1,335

Mrs. Spencer
3/8 = savings

Both saved the same amount of money. How much is Mrs. Spencer's paycheck?

Mr. Donovan's paycheck.
1,335 ÷ 5/7 = 1,335 * 7/5 = 9345/5 = 1869

Mr.Donovan's savings
1869 * 2/7 = (1869*2)/7 = 3738/7 = 534

Mr. Donovan's savings = Mrs. Spencer's savings

Mrs. Spencer's pay check
534 ÷ 3/8 = 534 * 8/3 = 4272/3 = 1424

Mrs. Spencer's paycheck is $1,424
