Answer: NO. He had an increase of 25%

Explanation:

To find the percentage increase, use the following formula where New (this week) = 25 and Original (last week) = 20.


\% Change=\frac{\text{New - Original}}{\text{Original}}\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad =(25-20)/(20)\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad =(5)/(20)\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad =(1)/(4)\qquad \rightarrow \qquad =0.25

Convert the decimal into percentage by moving the decimal point two places to the right. 0.25 = 25%

Evan spent 25% more time this week than last week.

It can also be stated that this week Evan did 125% of homework compared to last week.

If Even spent 125% more than last week, he would have spent 100% (20 hours) + 25% (4 hours) = 24 hours.
