Question

an ice cream truck had 316 customers the first weeckend it opend the second weekend it had 468 what is the percent increse in the number of custumers round to the nearest percent

Answer 1

48%

Explanation:

To calculate the percent increase in the number of customers, you can use the following formula:

Percent Increase = [(New Value - Old Value) / Old Value] x 100%

In this case:

- Old Value (the number of customers the first weekend) is 316.

- New Value (the number of customers the second weekend) is 468.

Now, plug these values into the formula:

Percent Increase = [(468 - 316) / 316] x 100%

Calculate the difference:

Percent Increase = (152 / 316) x 100%

Now, divide 152 by 316:

Percent Increase ≈ 0.4810 x 100%

Round to the nearest percent:

Percent Increase ≈ 48%

So, the percent increase in the number of customers from the first weekend to the second weekend is approximately 48%.
