Question

If a woman making $25 an hour gets a 15% raise, how much will she now make in an 8 hour work day?

Answer 1

So you would do 25 x .15 and get 3.75 then you would add that to 25 getting 28.75 and multiply that by 8 getting you 230 So she would make 230 dollars

Answer 2

You would have to multiply 25 by 15%, or .15 This is 3.75.
Now add 3.75 to 25, because that is the raise. This is 28.75.
Lastly, multiply 28.75 by 8.

Answer: $230
