The game of blind man's buff

Slovak levy system makes the gross wage deductions from your pay state employees. It has two components - part employee pays and part pays by the employer Suppose that the super gross wage paid 23% employer. After deducting these contributions we receive gross wages. From it get off additional 16% and employee receive a net salary. Calculate gross and net wages, if super-gross wage (total labor cost) is 1638 Euros.

Correct result:

h =  1261.26 Eur
c =  1059.46 Eur

Solution:

h=1638⋅ (1−23/100)=6306350=1261.26 Eurh=1638 \cdot \ (1-23/100)=\dfrac{ 63063 }{ 50 }=1261.26 \ \text{Eur}
c=1638⋅ (1−23/100)⋅ (1−16/100)=1059.46 Eurc=1638 \cdot \ (1-23/100) \cdot \ (1-16/100)=1059.46 \ \text{Eur}
