Question 183970
What the problem is asking is:
"What percent of the salary that she is already 
getting does her increase in salary equal?
Her increase in salary is
{{{14000 - 12000 = 2000}}} 
The fraction of this increase to her original salary is
{{{2000/12000 = 1/6}}}
How do I express this fraction as a percent?
per cent means per 100, so I need to find {{{x}}}  in
{{{1/6 = x/100}}}
Multiply both sides by {{{600}}}
{{{100 = 6x}}}
{{{x = 16.67}}}
Her percent increase in salary is 16.67%
