The price of a four star dinner was $100 two decades ago. A report says that a dinner is 250% of what it was 20 years ago, how much would it cost today?

1 decade = 10 years

2 decade = 20 years

20 years ago the price of dinner was $100

dinner is 250% of what it was 20 years ago

250% * 100 =
(250)/(100) * 100 =250

Price of dinner today is $250
