James priya and Siobhan work in a grocery store. James makes 7.00 per hr. Priya makes 20% more that James. And Siobhan makes 5% less than priya. How much does Siobhan makes per hour.

Answer 1

First, determine what 20% of 7 is, by multiplying 7 x .20.

Then, add that answer to the original $7. That's the amount Priya makes.

Then, take that answer and determine what 5% of it is. Answer x .07.

Finally, subtract that last answer from the amount Priya was making.
