Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

the number is increased by 3 so you put 3 on 15 and 3/15=1/5=2/10=20/100

The percentage increase in the pay of Nina is 20%.

How to calculate percentage increase?

To calculate the percentage increase work out the difference (reduction) between the two figures you are comparing before calculating a percentage drop. Then, increase the result by 100 after dividing the decrease by the initial number.

% Increase = Increase / Original Number × 100

Nina got the initial pay as $15.00 per hour.

After the increment, her pay increased to $18.00.

The total increment = final pay - initial pay

                                 = 18.00 - 15.00

                                 = 3.00

Now, the percentage increase = (3/15)×100

                                                   = 20

Therefore, there is the 20% increment for the pay of Nina.
