Step-by-step explanation:
Answers: A) $44,944
B) $50,499.0784
Math: Using the percentage calculator linked below 6% of $40,000 is $2,400. Since you're getting your second raise after your first and since it is a 6% raise from what you're getting paid at that time we add pay raise 1 to your starting pay before calculating the 6% for pay raise 2. $40,000+$2,400=$42,400. 6% of $42,400 is $2,544. $42,400+$2,544=$44,944, Since that is two pay raises that would be your earnings at the end of year two (answer A).
We continue calculating 6% then adding that onto the total before calculating it for the next year for problem B.
6% of $44,944 is $2,696.64. $44,944+$2,696.64=$47,640.64.
6% of $47,640.64 is $2,858.4384. $47,640.64+$2,858.4384=$50,499.0784. That's answer B.
Hopefully you can figure out C on your own! I feel a little bad for giving a partial answer but I think you can do this!

Remember when you learning about the "Least Common
Multiple" and you wondered when in the world you would
ever need to use it ?
Well, here you are ! Hello !
The next time they will cross the starting line together is the
LCM (Least Common Multiple) of 30 and 40 .
Do you remember how to find it ?
Here's one easy way:
Count by 30s until you come to a number that's divisible by 40 .
Laura's first lap. . . . . . . . 30 seconds . . . not divisible by 40
Laura's two laps . . . . . . . 60 seconds . . . not divisible by 40
Laura's three laps. . . . . . 90 seconds . . . not divisible by 40
Laura's four laps. . . . . . 120 seconds . . . divisible by 40
After 120 seconds, Laura has completed four laps,
Shelby has completed only three laps.
