Answer: 32.0%

Explanation:

The price of car last month = $250

The price of the car this month = $330

Increase in price = $330 - $250 = $80

Percentage increase = (Increase in price/Cost price last month) × 100

= $80$250 × 100

= 0.32 × 100

= 32.0%

The percent of increase in the price of the car is 32.0%.
