Problem

Last month, Ebony had 110 dollars in a

checking account. The current balance is

146 dollars. What is the percent change in

the account balance from last month to this

month? Round your answer to the nearest whole percent.

Solutiion

For this case we can use the following formula:


\text{Change}=\frac{\text{Actual}-\text{Before}}{\text{Before}}\cdot100

And replacing we got:


\text{Change}=(146-110)/(110)\cdot100=32.72

And then the answer wounded to the nearest percent would be:

33%
