Question

Patty got a new part-time job. Her hourly wage was increased from $10.50 to $12.30. What was the percent increased in Patty's hourly wage? (Also, can you please show me the steps of how to do the question.)

Answer 1

Explanation:

Subtract $10.50 from $12.30 and you will get 1.8.

Then divide 1.8 to 100 (because 100% = total) and you will get 0.018 which means 18%. Her hourly wage increased 18%.
