Answer:

12.78%

Explanation:

Motorcycle manufacturer built motorcycles last year for = $133,000

This year it expects to build for = $150,000

Let the percent of increase in production this year = x%

x% =
((150,000-133,000))/(133,000)


(x)/(100) =
(17,000)/(133,000)

x = 12.78%

The increase in production is 12.78%
