For this question, it says that employees at a hardware store are receiving pay raises.
00:05
Dan's hourly pay raise rate is increasing from 12 to 14, and kathy's is increasing from 13 to 15.
00:13
So we want to complete the proportions that can be used to find the percent change for each one.
00:18
And then we want to compare who had the greater pay raise or the percent change.
00:26
So for dan, so it's going to be new.
00:31
The absolute value of new minus original over original.
00:39
Oops, let's say original over divided by original equals x over 100 or percent my percent over 100.
00:56
So let's do dan's first.
00:58
So dan's new is 14 minus 12 divided by 12 over 100.
01:09
So we're going to get 2 over 12.
01:14
Equals the percent over 100 so i'm going to cross multiply so it's going to be 200 divided by 12 and dan is going to have percent change of 16 i'll write it over here write it by dan so dan's going to be 16 .67 percent all right let's do the same thing for kathy so we'll do kathy over here.
01:49
So kathy's 15 new minus her original, divided by the original.
01:56
It's the percent over 100.
02:00
So kathy is going to be 2 over 13 over 100...
