Question

Last year there were 260 students in a soccer program. This year, that number increased by 140%. How many more students joined the soccer program this year?

Answer 1

Answer: 104 more students

Explanation:

First, convert 140% to a decimal, 1.4. Next, multiply 1.4 by the students from last year, 260, to get 364. Finally, subtract 260 from 364 to get the final answer of 104.
