    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let us take the salary of state B as 'x'

    Salary of state A = 53280 + x

    Total salary = 284680

    Therefore, 53280 + x + x = 284680

    = 2x = 284680 - 53280

    = x = 249400/2

    x = 124700

    Salary of state B = 124700

    Salary of state A = 177980
