Answer:

Percentage change = 25%

Explanation:

To find the percentage change we use the formula


Percentage \: \: change \: \: = (change)/(original \: \: quantity) * 100

To find the change subtract the lesser one from the larger one

Original price = 2000

Final price = 2500

Change = 2500 - 2000 = 500

So the percentage change is


(500)/(2000) * 100


= (1)/(4) * 100

We have the final answer

Percentage change = 25%

Hope this helps you
