Question

If last years sales were $200,000 and this years increase was 250% how much are this years sales

Answer 1

This years sales is 240,000 dollars

Answer 2

$700000

Explanation:

We are given that last year sales=$200,000

This year sales increases=250%

We have to find the earn money from this year sales

Let x be the earn money in this year

According to question

`(250)/(100)* 200000+200000=x`

`x=500000+200000=700000`

Hence, this year sales=$700000
