Answer: The percentage change is 16%.

Explanation:

February:

4,100 water bottles.

March:

(4,100 + 7/100 x 4,100) water bottles

(4,100 + 287) water bottles.

4,387 water bottles.

April:

(500 + 4,387) water bottles.

4,887 water bottles.

= (4,887 - 4,100) / 4,887 x 100

= 787/4,887 x 100

= 16%

The percentage change is 16%.

Increase of 7% from February to march: 4100*107/100= 4387
The 500 increase from March to April: 4387+500= 4887
Formula of change: amount of change/ original amount *100.
500/4837*100= 11,397%
