Question

A woman earning $20 an hour gets a 15% raise. With her raise, how much will she earn after working 40 hours?

Answer 1

She will earn $920 after working 40 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Amount per hour = $20

Raise = 15%

Raise amount = 15% of Amount per hour

$Raise\ amount = \frac{15}{100}*20\\Raise\ amount= \frac{300}{100}\\Raise\ amount= \ 3$

New amount per hour = Amount per hour + raise amount

New amount per hour = 20+3= $23

Total earning after working 40 hours = Amount per hour * 40

$Total\ earning=23*40\\Total\ earning= \ 920$

She will earn $920 after working 40 hours.
