Answer: 7.7%

Step-by-step explanation: First find the increase in height by subtracting 52 from 56. 56-52=4.

To find what percent this is of 52, divide 4 by 52. 4/52=0.0769. Then convert this from a decimal to a percent by multiplying by 100. 0.0769*100=7.69.

I just rounded it to the nearest tenth, you can change it how you need to.
