Question

The inventory of a store 2 years ago was worth $45,000. This year it is

worth $49,500. What is the percent increase?

Answer 1

I'm most certain it is 8.89

Explanation:

the formula:

((y2 - y1) / y1)*100 = your percentage change

(where y1=start value and y2=end value)

((49.000 - 45.000) / 45.000) * 100 = 8.89 %

Answer 2

I know tht its 10% increase because i did the math

Explanation:

49500-45000=4500/45000=.1*100=10% increase

Hope this helps! :D
