In order to find the percent increase from 50 to 90, first let's find the absolute increase, calculating the difference between the numbers:


90-50=40

The increase was 40 units. Now, to find the percent increase, we just need to divide this absolute increase by the initial value:


(40)/(50)=(4)/(5)=0.8=80\text{\%}

So the percent increase is 80%.
