Question

Tom gets a bonus of 30% of £96

sally gets a bonus of £31.40

work out the difference between the bonus that tom gets and the bonus that sally gets

Answer 1

The difference between the bonus is £2.6

Explanation:

First, you have to calculate the amount that Tom get for his bonus. So you have to multiply 30% to £96 :

`(30)/(100) * 96 = 28.8`

Next, you have to subtract Tom's amount from Sally's amount because Sally has the higher amount of bonus than Tom :

`31.4 - 28.8 = 2.6`
