Answer:

16.66%

Step-by-step explanation:

175-150= 25/week increase

now to find what that represents as a percent:

175/150 = x/100  cross multiply

150x = 17500 divide both sides by 150

x = 116.66 *** but!!! we now have to remember we started with a "full" salary - this is an increase.

So, 166.66 - 100 = 16.66

16.66%  Are you asked to round your answer to a whole percent? Of so, you might round that to a 17% increase (though this is not as precise as the decimal).
