Question

From $25 to $35


The percent increase is

Answer 1

40 percent

Explanation:

Start by taking the difference of the two values:

35-25 = 10.

the $10 is how much the value increased by.

To get the percent that the $25 increased by, take 10/25 to get .4

This .4 can then be turned into a percentage when you multiply it by 100. = 40 percent.

You can check your answer by finding 40 percent of 25, which is 10.
