Answer 1

50%

Explanation:

Brandi has 8 rebounds on Monday

Brandi has 12 rebounds on Tuesday

Thus, we have to calculate the percentage increase of the rebounds between the days

The % Increase = (12 - 8) / 8 * 100%

The % Increase = 4 / 8 * 100%

The % Increase = 0.5 * 100%

The % Increase = 50%
