Answer:

G. 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Last month income = $20350

Increment = $2000

For finding increased percentage, we should have to divide the increment by monthly income and multiply it with 100.

Increased percentage = [tex]\frac{increment}{Last\ month\ income}\times100[/tex]

[tex]\therefore increased\ percentage=\frac{2000}{20350} \times100\\\\ increased\ percentage=\frac{200000}{20350}=9.82\approx10\%[/tex]

Thus the increase in the income of Jim is 10%.
