Answer: 158.7 is the answer

or it can be 89.7

Explanation:

69 + Percentage increase =

69 + (130% × 69) =

69 + 130% × 69 =

(1 + 130%) × 69 =

(100% + 130%) × 69 =

230% × 69 =

230 ÷ 100 × 69 =

230 × 69 ÷ 100 =

15,870 ÷ 100 =

158.7

69 increased by 130% = 158.7

Absolute change (actual difference):

158.7 - 69 = 89.7
