PLEASE HELPPP

The price of a hot dog 45 years ago was $0.75. Today, the price has increased by 220%.
What is the price of a hot dog today? If this percent increase stays the same, what will
be the price of a hot dog in another 45 years?

You increase by 2.2, when NOW you have 1. 1+2.2=3.2

The cost now is 2.4
