Question

Elbert used to make $22 an hour, but got a 10% raise. How much more will he make in 40 hours work week with the raise

Answer 1

Answer:

Elbert will Make $968 in 40 hours of work with the raise.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Elbert makes $22 an hour.

He got 10% raise

Money raised on 10% = $\frac{10}{100}\times 22=\ 2.2$

Now total money for per hour after raise  = $\ 22+\ 2.2=\ 24.2$

Now to find the total money earned after 40 hours with raise we need to multiply total money for per hour after raise with number of hours.

Total money earned = $\ 24.2 \times 40 = \ 968$

Hence, Elbert will Make $968 in 40 hours of work with the raise.
