Question

Ricky salary increased from $3700 to $3800 what percent did it increase

Answer 1

2.7%

Explanation:

It increased by $100. So you need to find what percent of 3700 is 100?

To do this you can use this equation:

Divide the part (100) by the whole (3700)

100/3700 = 0.027

Make sure its not the other way around.

Then multiply that decimal by 100.

0.027 x 100 =2.7

Then just add a % sign at the end

2.7%

100 is 2.7% of 3700
