Question

Fadli, whose salary was $3450, received an increment of 12%. He was also given a bonus of 6% of his new salary. Find the total amount of money he received.​

Answer 1

The total amount of money Fadli received was $4095.84

Explanation:

Old Salary = $3450,

Increment = 12%

Now, the new salary then becomes,

New salary = Old salary + (increment)(Old salary)

New salary = 3450 + (0.12)(3450)

New salary = 3450 + 414

New salary = $3864

Now the bonus was 6% of his new salary, so,

Bonus = (6%)(New salary)

Bonus = (0.06)(3864)

Bonus = $231.84

Hence the total amount of money he received was,

Total = New Salary + Bonus

Total = 3864 + 231.84

Total = $4095.84

Answer 2

To find the total amount of money Fadli received after the increment and bonus, we can use the following steps:

Calculate Fadli's new salary after the 12% increment:

New Salary = Old Salary + (Increment Percentage * Old Salary)

New Salary = $3,450 + (0.12 * $3,450)

New Salary = $3,450 + $414

New Salary = $3,864

Calculate the bonus amount based on Fadli's new salary:

Bonus Amount = Bonus Percentage * New Salary

Bonus Amount = 0.06 * $3,864

Bonus Amount = $232.32

Calculate the total amount of money Fadli received:

Total Amount = New Salary + Bonus Amount

Total Amount = $3,864 + $232.32

Total Amount = $4,096.32

Therefore, Fadli received a total amount of $4,096.32 after the increment and bonus.
