Question

Gina recently got a 10% raise on her salary. If Gina used to make $25 an hour, what is her new salary?

Answer 1

the new salary would be $27.5

Answer 2

Her new salary is 27.5 an hour

Explanation:

Gina used to make $25 an hour

We are given that Gina recently got a 10% raise on her salary

Increase in salary per hour =
`10\% * 25`

=
`(10)/(100) * 25`

=
`2.5`

Her new salary = 25+2.5 = 27.5 an hour

So, her new salary is 27.5 an hour
