<h3>
Answer: 53,560 dollars</h3>
=======================================================
Explanation:
Having the salary increase by 3% means we can use the multiplier 1.03
Think of it like 100% + 3% = 1 + 0.03 = 1.03
The new salary is 52,000*1.03 = 53,560 dollars
----------------
The slightly longer way to do this is to first figure out how much 3% of 52,000 is
3% of 52,000 = 0.03*52,000 = 1560
Ricardo earns $1560 more dollars on top of the salary of $52,000
So overall his new salary is $1,560 + $52,000 = $53,560
----------------
Personally, I prefer the first method because it's quicker and it allows for multiple percentage increases to chain together. It also could be used to chain in percentage decreases as well.

You answer is 152
Step by step:
Divide it into 2 rectangles
1st rectangle 10x8=80
2nd rectangle 12x6=72
80+72=152
Infinity means it goes forever
such as Pi in maths - it goes forever!!
HOPE THIS HELPS!!
