My kind of MATH!! (Brutuskend again!)

[Brutuskend]

An executive was having trouble with figuring the discount on a bill he received, so he asked his secretary for assistance.

"If I were to give you $20,000 less 2 percent, how much would you take off?" he asked.

She thought about it for a few seconds and replied, "Everything but my earrings!"

The problem can't be solved because we don't know the value of the earrings.

bingo. but, if her salary was say...$30k, then i would have to say it was something like:
$30k- 2% ($600) - $20k = $9,400

is that right?
