Below is the solution:

Backing out the bonus, we get 2711 - 250 = 2461, which is 161 more than his last check 

So 161 / 2300 = 0.07, or 7%


Answer:

The answer is 7%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Current month paycheck gross was = $2,711

Bonus was $250, we have the amount

[tex]2711-250=2461[/tex] dollars

Subtracting old paycheck gross of $2,300

[tex]2461-2300=161[/tex] dollars

The raise percentage is given by:

[tex]\frac{161}{2300}\times100[/tex] = 7%

Hence, the answer is 7%.
