Answer:

1) It would be about a 55% increase. 2) It would be about a 79% increase

Explanation:

I used process of elimination to figure out how much of a percentage would be needed by just multiplying 210 by different percentages until I found the answer.

Sorry I don't have like a definite formula or anything for you to figure these questions out... I hope someone else answers with a more definite answer!
