Question

Wilson starts working in a company on 1st January. His starting salary is
$10 000 per month. The company guarantees that his monthly salary will be
increased by $500 every 6 months. Find his total income earned in the first
3 years.

Answer 1

3 years = 36 months
36/6 = 6
6 x 500 = 3 000
10 000 x 36 = 36 000
36 000 + 3 000 = 39 000
total income is 39 000
