Question

Chirstina was playing a game at the county fair. She scored 250 points during the second game she scored 385 what is the percent of increase from her score on the first game to her score on the secound game?

Answer 1

There is 54% increase from her score on the first game to her score on the second game.

Explanation:

Here, The points scored in the first game = 250 points

The points cored in the second game = 385 points

Now, the increase in the points from first game to second

= Point scored in second game - Points scored in first game

= 385 points - 250 points = 135 points

Now,
`\textrm{The percentage increase in the points}  = \frac{\textrm{Increase in the points}}{\textrm{ Initial Score in first game}}  * 100`

`= (135)/(250)  * 100 = 54`

Hence, there is 54% increase from her score on the first game to her score on the second game.
