Question An employee makes $24 per hour during the normal week. This weekend that employee will make $36 per hour since it is a holiday. What is the percent increase in pay?

The percent increase in pay is 50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the percent increase from $24 to $36.

To solve this, we first must ask ourselves the question

36 is what percent of 24?

Y = P% of 24

36 = X · 24

To get X alone, we divide 36 by 24. That's 1.50. So now we know 36 is 150% of 24. Knowing 24 is 100%, we can find the percent increase. Well, how do we get from 100% (24) to 150% (36)? By increasing by 50%. Therefore, the percent increase in pay is 50%.

i think this could be a possible answer (1 / 84) -1

good luck! : d

tube or goog would be a great resource to with that question
