The salary of Jim is expressed in algebra as 1.07S ( if the initial salary S is increased by 0.7) // shouldn’t it be S+ (S - 0.7S)
Does someone understand where that number comes from?

If initial salary is s and it is increased by 7%.
So, increase = s*7/100=0.07s
Final salary = initial+increase =s+0.7s=1.07s

Initial Salary is "S"
Increase in Salary 7% of S (0.07S)
So Total = S + 0.07S
= S (1+0.07)
= 1.07S
I hope it clears your doubt
