Let x be the monthly salary of the other person.
We know the arithmetic mean of the monthly salaries of two people is $4422, so the total of their monthly salaries is $4422 * 2 = $8844.
Therefore, the sum of the monthly salaries of the two people is $3225 + x = $8844.
Subtracting $3225 from both sides, we get:
x = $8844 - $3225 = $5619
Therefore, the monthly salary of the other person is $5619.
The arithmetic mean of the monthly salaries of two people is $4422. One person earns $3225 per month. What is the monthly salary of the other person?
