Question

the price of a technology stock was $9.53 yesterday. Today, the price rose to $9.66. Find the percentage increase. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

Answer 1

Hi!

I'll show you what the percentage formula is:

[(New Value - Old Value/Old Value] × 100

Use that formula to solve this question:

9.66 - 9.53 / 9.53 × 100 = 1.3641133263

You can round this to 1.36% =)
