Question

If the population of a certain city increased 25% in two years, the new population was what percent of the old?

Α. 1.25%
B
C
25%
50%
D
125%
E
150%

Answer 1

125%

Explanation:

This because if in origin the city was made up for example by 100,000 people, that was the 100% of the city. Now you add the 25% in two years and the city will be made by 125,000 people. So 100%+25%=125%.

I think it's right
