Solution

First, we need to calculate how much of the $56,000 is going to be used for temporary salaries.

Step 1: Calculate 4% of $56,000 To do this, we multiply 56000 by 0.04 (which is the decimal equivalent of 4%).

56000 * 0.04 = $2,240

So, $2,240 is going to be used for temporary salaries.

Step 2: Subtract the temporary salaries from the total salary appropriation to find the amount allocated for permanent salaries.

56000 - 2240 = $53,760

So, $53,760 is allocated for permanent salaries.
