Answer:

More earn this summer per month = $30 more

Entire summer earning (for 2.5 months) = $1950

Step-by-step explanation:

For 2.5 months, you got 1875 dollars, so per month salary is:

1875/2.5 = $750 per month

This summer, you got a 4% raise, that means:

4% = 4/100 = 0.04

The raise is:

0.04 * 750 = $30 raise

So, new monthly salary is:

750 + 30 = $780

So, assuming you will work 2.5 months again this summer, you total earnings would be:

2.5 * 780 = $1950
