100% of Adam's original income = $800
1% of Adam's original income = 800 ÷ 100 = $8
100% + 30% = 130%
130% of Adam's original income = 130 x 8 = $1040
100% of Adam's new income = $1040
1% of Adam's new income = 1040 ÷ 100 = $10.40
100% + 30% = 130%
130% of Adam's new income = 130 x 10.40 = $1352
Adam's latest income = $1352
Answer(s): $1352
