Answer:

$1590

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find 6% of $1500. Then add that amount to $1500.

To find a percent of a number, multiply the percent by the number. To change a percent to a decimal number, move the decimal point of the percent 2 places to the left. 6% as a decimal is 0.06

6% of $1500 =

= 6% * $1500

= 0.06 * $1500

= $90

The raise is $90. Now we add $90 to $1500.

$1500 + $90 = $1590
