Last year, a farm yielded an average of 240 hundredweight of potatoes per acre. If the farm yielded 330 hundredweight per acre this year, by what percent did the potato yield increase from last year?

I'm not 100% sure, since I suck at math, especially percentages, but I think it would be 37.5%

If I got it right, please mark as Brainlliest! I would really appreciate it!

I believe you would subtract 240 from 330 and get 90. Then, take the 90 and divide it by 240 to get 3/8 or 37.5%. Hope that helps. :)
