Christy purchased an art easel at a garage sale for $30. She later sold the easel on Craigslist for $45. What was the percent increase of the price of the easel?

$15 increase, but percentage is different.
The $15 is equivalent to 33.33% of the new price. Thus, there would be a 33.33% increase in price. Hope i help
