Answer:

The speed of car production increase at 250%

Explanation:

we know that

20 cars in a day represent the 100%

so

Using proportion

Find out how much percentage represent the production increase

The production increase is 70-20=50 cars per day


(20)/(100\%) =(50)/(x)\\\\x=100(50)/20\\\\x=250\%

therefore

The speed of car production increase at 250%
