Question

James, Priya, and Siobhan work in a grocery store. James makes $9.00 per hour. Priya makes 20% more than James, and Siobhan makes 15% less than Priya. How much does Siobhan make per hour? Siobhan makes $ per hour

Answer 1

20% = 0.2
9 + 9 * 0.2 = 10.8 - Priya makes $ per hour.
100% - 15% = 85% = 0.85
10.8 * 0.85 = 9.18 - Siobhan makes $ per hour.
Answer: $9.18
