She makes 20,000 this year. She get's a raise of 2% next year, so she'll make more money next year.
2% = 0.02
Her raise: 0.02 * 20,000 = $400
Add her raise to her present salary to find the amount she'll make next year.
20,000 + (0.02 * 20,000) =
2% = 0.02
Her raise: 0.02 * 20,000 = $400
Add her raise to her present salary to find the amount she'll make next year.
20,000 + (0.02 * 20,000) =
Don
0.02($20,000) + 20,000
