Billy get 5.9% raise after completing first year.

<h3>What is PERCENTAGE?</h3>

A percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100. If we have to calculate percent of a number, divide the number by the whole and multiply by 100.

Here, Billy's initial salary = $ 42,500

After raise, salary become $ 45,000

Change in salary = Raised salary - Initial salary

                            = 45000 - 42500

                            = $ 2500

% Change = change / initial salary  X 100

                  = 2500 / 42500 X 100

                  = 0.0589 X 100

                  ≈ 5.9 %

Thus, Billy get 5.9% raise after completing first year.

snow_lady [41]
<span>The question said that Juan earns 5 percent on the first ten suits sold. Commission earned on the first ten 250.00 dollars suits = 5% of 250.00 times 10 suits = 0.05 x 250 x 10 = $125.00. The question said that he earns an additional 3 percent on additional suits exceeding 10 suits making a total of 8 percent. Since Juan sold 13 suits, he sold 3 additional suits. 8% of 250.00 times 3 suits = 0.08 x 250 x 3 = $60. Therefore, total commision = $125 + $60 = $185.00</span>
