Answer 1

The percent of change is 42 %

Solution:

Given that, Hollister boys shirts for 26 dollars and sells them for 37 dollars

We have to find the percent of change

The percent change is given by formula:

`Percent\ Change = \frac{\text{final value - initial value}}{\text{Initial value}} * 100`

Here given that,

Initial value = 26 dollars

Final value = 37 dollars

Substituting the values we get,

`Percent\ Change = (37-26)/(26) * 100\\\\Percent\ Change = (11)/(26) * 100\\\\Percent\ Change =0.423 * 100\\\\Percent\ Change =42.3 \approx 42`

Thus percent of change is 42 %
