Answer:

X+8/100x ; X+0.08x

Explanation:

Let x = last month's earning

8% =8/100 or 0.08

8/100 of x= 8/100x 008 of x=0.08x

last month + 8/100 of last month:

x+8/100x

last month + 0.08 of last month:

x+0.08x

Those are your two answers. I am sorry if they are wrong. I am not the best at math, but I tried supplying the answers as best as I could.
