Answer:
50 increased by 30% is 65
Explanation:
'Percent (%)' means 'out of one hundred':
p% = p 'out of one hundred',
p% is read p 'percent',
p% = p/100 = p ÷ 100.
30% = 30/100 = 30 ÷ 100 = 0.3.
100% = 100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 1.
Percentage increase = 30% × 50
New value = 50 + Percentage increase
Calculate
New value =
50 + Percentage increase =
50 + (30% × 50) =
50 + 30% × 50 =
(1 + 30%) × 50 =
(100% + 30%) × 50 =
130% × 50 =
130 ÷ 100 × 50 =
130 × 50 ÷ 100 =
6,500 ÷ 100 =
65
Or just find 30% of 50 (15) and add that
