Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

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%

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.

hip deep in pie

Robin, if my math is right, (and that's a dubious thing) it's a 20% raise.

My math is actually right! Go my English/Theatre person self.

I do that sometimes. And sometimes it causes an x-post.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Thanks, math (and theater) peeps.
