This year Ayesha scored 13 goals.
Calculate the percentage increase
in for the number of goals
scored.

Answer 1

13 _18= 5

5/13×100%=38.46%

Answer 2

60% Increase

Explanation:

Ayesha scored 5 more goals over her previous goal count of 8. That means:

(5/8) = 0.60 or 60% increase.

A 60% increase means a factor of 1.6 (1 + 0.6)

(8 goals)*(1.6) = 13 goals
