Suppose a worker makes $24,000 in wages per year. Find the percent increase in salary the worker can expect if trains to be teacher and can expect to earn salary of $55,000
The percent increase in salary can be calculated using the following formula:
percent increase = (new salary - old salary) / old salary x 100%
Plugging in the given values, we get:
percent increase = ($55,000 - $24,000) / $24,000 x 100%
percent increase = $31,000 / $24,000 x 100%
percent increase = 129.17%
Therefore, the worker can expect a percent increase in salary of 129.17% if they become a teacher and earn a salary of $55,000.
