Question

Elbert used to make $22 an hour, but got a 10% raise. How much more will he make in 40 hours work week with the raise

Answer 1

Elbert will Make $968 in 40 hours of work with the raise.

Explanation:

Given:

Elbert makes $22 an hour.

He got 10% raise

Money raised on 10% =
`(10)/(100)* 22=\$2.2`

Now total money for per hour after raise =
`\$22+\$2.2=\$24.2`

Now to find the total money earned after 40 hours with raise we need to multiply total money for per hour after raise with number of hours.

Total money earned =
`\$24.2 * 40 = \$968`

Hence, Elbert will Make $968 in 40 hours of work with the raise.
