Question 880907: in addition to an employees $300 weekly salary. management has approved a 6% pay increase plus an extra $12 per week for travel expenses. in total, whats the percentage of his increase? Answer by fcabanski(1391) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Percent is change/original x 100.
6 = change/300 x100
300*6/100 = 18 dollars per week is the 6 % raise.
The total increase is 18 + 12 = 30 dollars per week.
% = change/original x 100 = 30/300 x 100 = 10% increase.
