    Answer: £11.69

    Explanation:

    1) Work out 2% of £1600:
    1600 x 2/100 =36

    2) Add it on to the original number to get his new monthly pay:
    1600 + 36 = £1636

    3) Work out his yearly pay by:

    a) finding the amount of months he worked:
    46 / 4 = 11.5 months

    b) Divide 11.5 into 2 bits and add them on:
    1636 x 11 = 17997
    1636 x 0.5 = 818

    17997 + 818 = £18814

    4) To get his pay per week:

    18814 / 46 = £409

    5) Finally, to get his pay per hour:

    409 / 35 = 11.68671…
    = £ 11.69
