Joaquin makes $600 a week. A raise of $24 a week represents what % of his salary?
75%
there are 24 members in a community block association. Only 18 of them came to their winter meeting. What percent of the members attended the meeting?
percent = (18/24)*100
To calculate the percentage increase in Joaquin's salary, we need to divide the raise amount by his current salary and then multiply by 100.
Step 1: Calculate the percentage increase
Percentage Increase = (Raise / Salary) * 100
Given:
Raise = $24
Salary = $600
Percentage Increase = (24 / 600) * 100
Percentage Increase = 0.04 * 100
Percentage Increase = 4%
Therefore, a raise of $24 a week represents a 4% increase in Joaquin's salary.
