Okay, I'm trying to help a friend who is asking fo r a raise. if someone is making 29,120.00 and they get a raise to 35,000.00, what percentage of a raise is that?
You'd want to look at the difference in pay as a percentage of the original pay level. So, (35000-29120)/29120 = about 20%
(35000-29120)/29120=.201923
20%
Ha! My math-foo is stronger quicker!
Hee. I actually refreshed once to see if anyone had already answered before posting, trying to avoid the x-post.
Why? I don't know. Doomed to failure, clearly.
Robin, if my math is right, (and that's a dubious thing) it's a 20% raise.

I do that sometimes. And sometimes it
causes
an x-post.
Thanks, math (and theater) peeps.
Thanks again, you guys! I will sleep well tonight.
Timelies all!
Congrats SA!
