Question

Solve for percent change: On Monday, Cynthia raised $75 for her charity.

On Tuesday, Cynthia raised $95 for her charity. What is the approximate
percent change? *

Answer 1

Let p = percent change

p = (new amount)/(original amount) • 100

p = (95 - 75)/75 • 100

p = 20/75 • 100

p = 26.666667

p = 26.6%

Done.
