Work Step by Step
RECALL:
$P=BR$ where $P$=part or amount (percentage), $B$=base, and $R$=rate
The given problem has:
$B= \$22.15$ per hour
$R= 32\%$
Use the formula above to find the increase in hourly rate ($P$) to obtain:
$=\$22.15 \times 32\%
\\=\$22.15 \times 0.32
\\=\$7.088
\\\approx 7.09$
Find the new hourly rate by adding the increase in rate to the original rate to obtain:
$=\$22.15 + \$7.09
\\=\$29.24$
