Question

What percent increase is this?
225 to 255

Answer 1

The percent increase is
`13.33`%

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the increase:

Increase in value =
`255-225`

=
`30`

Percent increase = [Increase in value / Initial value]*100

=
`(30)/(225) *100`

=
`13.33`%

Therefore,

the percent increase is
`13.33`%
