Hey there!

Here is your answer:

The proper answer to this question is "$25,625".

Reason:

In order to add a 2.5% increase on a pay check you have to multiply 25,000 by 1.025.....

25,000×1.025=$25,625

Therefore my new salary is $
25,625!

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!
