Question

find each percent of change round to the nearest whole percent if necessary state wether the change is an increase or decrease 10 acres to 140 acres

Answer 1

Percent change
`93`% ( Rounded to nearest whole number).

It is an increase.

Explanation:

10 has been changed to 140.

Percent change = [(Value after - Value before) / Value before]*100

=
`(140-10)/(10)*100`%

=
`(130)/(10)*100`%

=
`92.8571`%

=
`93`% ( Rounded to nearest whole number)

We can clearly see that percentage change is a positive change. Therefore it is an increase.
