Question

Mr. Turner earned $40,000 last year. This year he estimates that he will earn 12% more money. How much does he estimate that he will earn.

Answer 1

$44,800

Explanation:

Original salary : $40,000

12% of original salary = 12% x 40,000 = 0.12 x 40,000 = $4,800

New salary = $40,000 + $4,800 = $44,800
