Ming got a 5% raise in her salary from last year. this year she is earning $42,000. how much did she make last year?

Respuesta :

If Ming is earning an annual salary of $42,000 after receiving a 5% raise from last year's salary, her previous salary would equal $39,900. Five percent of $42,000 is $2100; subtracting $2100 from $42,000 equals a $39,900 salary for Ming's previous employment year.
