He can calculate his new hourly pay rate by adding the 5% of his current pay rate to his current pay rate itself.

• Given data :

His current pay rate is $20.

The increase percentage is 5%.

• So,first we have to calculate the increased amount of his pay rate :

= 20×5/100

= $ 1

• Now, we have to calculate his new pay rate by using the following mathematical formula :

= his previous pay rate + increased amount

= $20 + $1

= $21

By,the above mentioned mathematical elaboration,he can easily calculate his increased pay rate which is $21. (Answer)
