Question

The seventh grade class is raising money to have a class trip at the end of the year. They began the year with $1500. They now have $1650 in the account. What is the percent of increase for the money the class has raised ?

Answer 1

The percent of the increase for the money the class raised is 10 %

Explanation:

Because if you divide 1500 by 10 you get 150 that means 150 is 10 % of 1500 and if you add 150 to 1500 you get 1650 so the increase of money the class raised is 10 %

I hope this helped :)
