Question

Crystal got a raise in her hourly wage increased from $11.25 to $15.15 what is the percent increase?

Answer 1

To do this, we are going to find the difference between the numbers, and divide by the original number.

15.15 - 11.25 = 3.90
3.90/11.25 = 0.3467 = 34.7% or 35%, depending on how they want you to round.
