If the price is going up by 12%, and we know that the previous price, we must find out how much the total of the order will be after the price increase.

12% = (12/100)

So put into your graphing calculator, (12/100)45 just like that, you should get $5.4.

Go back to the old price, add the new price, and that is your outcome.

45+5.4

Therefore the new price after the increase is $50.4
