Respuesta :

B.) - 0.05(400). 5% = 5/100 =0.05. First to know how much extra is added to her weekly salary, $375 is multiplied by 0.05 (5%). So, 375 Ă— 0.05= 18.75. Next is to add the $18.75 to the $375 ($375+$18.75=$ 393.75). And rounding up the money to the nearest 100 will give you $400 (If the number you are rounding is followed by 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, round the number up. Since 3 is followed by 9, 3 is rounded up to 4).
here add the other guy as brainliest :)
