Ashley is making $500 a week at her job she receives a 20% pay raise a year later she takes 5% pay cut how much does she make per week now?

Hello!

So, Ashley used to make $500 a week, then she got a 20% raise. Find 20% of 500 and then add it onto how much she makes.

20% = 0.20 as a decimal

500 × 0.20 = 125

500 + 125 = 625

So, after the 20% raise, Ashley started making $625 a week. Then, she takes a 5% pay cut.

Just like before, find 5% of 625, but instead of adding it to her pay, we must SUBTRACT it.

5% = 0.05 as a decimal.

625 × 0.05 = 31.25

625 - 31.25 = 593.75

ANSWER:

Ashley now makes $593.75 per week.

I’m not sure what it is i sorry : ((
