Question

Find the amount of increase and the percent increase if the original amount is 270 and the new amount is 351.

Answer 1

Original ammount is 270.

New ammount = 351

Ammount of increasing = 351-270 = 81

Profit percentage = (profit/cp)100

Percent increasing = (81/270)100 = 0.3*100 = 30

30% is increasing.
