annie12m · Answer

455     100
--- =  ---
  x       20

9100 = 100x
/100    /100
91 = x

455 + 91 = $546

To calculate his new weekly rate you need to figure out how much is 20% of $455 then add it to $455.

prince1342 · Answer

I believe you would turn 20% into 0.2

prince1342 · Answer

Then multiply that by 400

anonymous · Answer

20% you would turn it into 0.2 then multiply buy 400 which you get 91, so add 91 to 455, Boom! =D
