B. Mills works as a construction worker. He makes a salary of 54,200 a year. After this year his boss decided to give him a 3.5% raise. What is his new salary?

$56,097

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to figure out how much his raise was, so we can convert 3.5% directly to a decimal:

3.5% = 0.035

Then we find

3.5% of 54,200 = 0.035 x 54,200 = 1,897

1,897 + 54,200 = 56,097

So, Mills new salary is $56,097

hope this helps:)

$9.89

step-by-step explanation:

9.90 = p x .06 x .25 (3/12 changed to a decimal)

9.90 = p x 0.015

9.90 - 0.015 = p

9.89 = p
