Answer 2

Answer:

25% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

Johnny's last year salary = $ $52,000$

Johnny's salary this month = $ $65,000$

Percentage increase in salary = increase in salary / last year salary * 100

Percentage increase =  $\frac{65000-52000}{52000}*100$

                                   =  $\frac{13000}{52000}*100$   =  $\frac{1}{4}*100$    =  $25$%

Thus Johnny's salary increases by 25%.
