Employees salary [$}: 30,000, 30,000, 35,000, 35,000, 40,000, 40,000.
CEO Salary: $70,000.
The correct answer is this: BOTH JAN AND MARCY ARE CORRECT.
Jan says the employee average salary is $35,000. This is correct as shown below:
Average employee salary = 30,000 + 30,000 + 35,000 +35,000 + 40,000 + 40,000 / 6 = 210 / 6 = $35,000.
Marcy says the average salary of all company members is $40,000. This is also true as shown below.
Average salary of all company members = 30,000 + 30,000 +35,000 + 35,000 + 40,000 + 40,000 + 70,000 / 7 = 280 / 7 = $40,000.
