Answer:

Percent change is 19.06%

Explanation:

It is given that:

Price before change = £125.99

Price after increase = £150

Change = 150 - 125.99 = £24.01

Percent of change =
(Change)/(Price\ before\ change)*100

Percent of change =
(24.01)/(125.99) * 100

Percent of change = 0.1906 * 100

Percent of change = 19.06%

Therefore,

Percent change is 19.06%
