Answer: Either of the following methods:

1. ((New pay rate / old pay rate) - 1) * 100

2. ((New pay rate - old pay rate) / old pay rate ) * 100

Proof:

If old pay rate = 15 $/hr and new pay rate = 18 $/hr, then:

1. ((18 / 15) - 1) * 100 = 20%

2. ((18 - 15) / 15) * 100 = 20%

Check:

old pay rate * (decimal version of 20%=0.20) + old pay rate = new pay rate

15 * 0.20 + 15 = 18
