Answer:

$26.46

Step-by-step explanation:

1 example $24.50*(108%)

24.5*1.08

= $26.46

2nd example 24.5+1.96=26.46

Also 8% of 24.5 is 1.96

Have A Great Day!! Hope this help you out! Glad its Thursday. I tried my best of helping you on this problem. Hope it was right if not I'm sorry I tried my best of figuring it out.

Answer:

Result: $26.46

Steps:

$24.50 (increase) + 8% = $26.46

24.50 x (1 + 8%) = 24.50 x (1 + 0.08) = 26.46

I'm truly sorry if my math is incorrect.

Bye, have a great day/night :)
