Proportional Relationships & Percentages:Question 1

Latonya bought hotdogs for $1.29 each to sell in the
concession stand. She sold them for $3.00 each. What is
the approximate percent increase in price?​

Answer 1

57%

Explanation:

Given data

Cost price = $1.29

selling price= $3

Change= 3-1.29

Change= $1.71

Hence the % increase

= 1.71/3*100

= 0.57*100

= 57%
