ANSWER


147.37\%

Step-by-step explanation

To find the percentage increase in the tuition, we have to find the difference between the new tuition and the old tuition and divide it by the old tuition.

Therefore, we have that:


\%_(inc)=(N-O)/(O)\cdot100

Therefore, the percentage increase is:


\begin{gathered} \%_(inc)=(2350-950)/(950)\cdot100 \\ \%_(inc)=147.37\% \end{gathered}

That is the answer.
