What is PERCENTAGE?

A percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100. If we have to calculate percent of a number, divide the number by the whole and multiply by 100.

Here, Billy's initial salary = $ 42,500

After raise, salary become $ 45,000

Change in salary = Raised salary - Initial salary

                            = 45000 - 42500

                            = $ 2500

% Change = change / initial salary  X 100

                  = 2500 / 42500 X 100

                  = 0.0589 X 100

                  ≈ 5.9 %

Thus, Billy get 5.9% raise after completing first year.
