Question

When Jose woke up the temperature was 74°. It

reached a high temperature of 91°. What was

the percent of increase of these temperatures?

Answer 1

22.97

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial temperature = 74°

After some time, the new temperature = 91°

We need to find the percent increase in the temperature.

The formula for the percentage increase is given by :

`\%=\frac{|\text{final value-initial value}|}{\text{initial value}}* 100\\\\=(91-74)/(74)*100\\\\=22.97\%`

So, the increase in temperature is 22.97%.
