Question

Irena sells ice cream

One day she sells 80 ice creams,
the next day she sells 108 ice creams.
Work out the percentage increase in the number of ice creams she sells.

Answer 1

The answer is 35%.

Answer 2

35%

Explanation:

Change/original x 100

The change between 80 and 108 is 108-80 = 28.

28/80 x 100 (80 is our original number of ice cream cones that she sold).

.35 x 100 = 35%
