Answer:

This is a 500% increase

Explanation:

To find the percent increase, we subtract the original amount from the new amount and then divide by the original amount

The new amount = 36

original amount =6

Percent increase = (new - original)/ original * 100 %

= (36-6)/6 = 100%

= 30/6 *100%

=5 * 100%

= 500 %
