Question

Zina has increased her video game points by 25% in a week. She was at 14,000 points last week. How many points does Zina

have?

Answer 1

Answer: 17,500 points.

Step-by-step explanation: Let's calculate the increase. The total value increased by 25%, so we add 25% of 14,000 to 14,000 to find the answer. To do so, we have to calculate 25% of 14,000. We can multiply 0.25 by 14,000 to find out that. When we do so, we get 3500. Now, we add 3500 to 14,000, giving us 17,500.
