Mary earns $25 per hour at her job. Next month, she will receive a 10% raise. Complete the two expressions that represent how much money Mary will earn per hour after she gets her raise.
25+------* 25
25 + -------
In the 1st blank, the answer is 0.1 or 0.10 because you have to change percents to decimals to find the raise. 10% as a decimal = 0.1 or 0.10
In the 2nd blank, the answer is 2.5 because on the top, it's 0.1*25, which equals 2.5, and 2.5 is the raise. All you have to do is multiply 10%, or 0.1, by 25, and you get 2.5.
