For this case we are going to assume the following:
m: whole number greater than zero.
n: integer greater than zero.
Where,
n> m
According to these assumptions, the percentage of growth is given by the following formula:

(n / m) * 100 - 100
Answer:
the number of students did grow by:

(n / m) * 100 - 100
