Paige earned $15.50 per hour. She received an 18% raise. If Paige worked 10 hours at her new salary. How much did Paige earn?

First, figure out the new salary. To do this, multiply 15.50 and 0.18. This is 2.79. Add this to 15.50.

15.50 + 2.79=18.29

Therefore, $18.29 is her hourly pay.

To find how much money she earns in 10 hours, multiply this pay per hour (18.29) times the hours worked (10).

18.29 x 10

182.9

This means that Paige earns $182.90 for working 10 hours.
