That will be 16.67% increase...here's how
The change in salary is $14,000 -$12,000 = $2,000
Percentage increase would be change in salary($2,000) divided by orginal salary($12,000) multiplied by 100 (for percentage) = 2000/12000 X 100 = 16.666..... or just round it off to 16.67%

Take 14,000 minus 12,000 = 2,000
Divide 2,000 by 12,000 multiply by 100% that gives you 16.7%
The formula is to divide the change (increase/decrease) by the original amount.

to find the answer subtract the old salary from the new .
14000-12000=2000
divide the result by the old salary
2000/12000=.166666
multiple result by 100 to get percentage
.166666*100=16.6%

The answer is 16.67% rounded.
FYI - to determine the % increase, subtract the two numbers, then divide the difference by the original value
(14000 - 12000) / 12000

(new - old) / old x 100 = % increase
(14k - 12k) / 12k x 100 =
2k/12 k x 100 = 16.67 %

16.6 % because it is being raised 2000 dollars which is 1/6 of 12000

14K - 12K = 2k divided by the original amount (12K) = .167 or the the same as 16.7%
