Question

2) Students enrolled in Algebra increased 25% over last year. Write

an expression to show the increase, and then simplify. Use (A) to
represent students in Algebra class.

Answer 1

Answer: 5A/4

Explanation: If the enrolled students increase by 25% then the new amount is 125% times more than the old number which can be represented by the fraction 5/4. You would then multiply this by A (the old count) and get your answer.
