Question

The tuition at a certain college was ​$20,799 last year and increased 5.8​% from last year to the current year. How much is this​ year's tuition?

Answer 1

22,005.342$

Explanation:

First you have to find 5.8% of 20,799

(20,799 × 5.8)/100= 1,206.342

Then you have to add the value into last year's tuition.

20,799+ 1,206.342= 22,005.342

Therefore, this year's tuition is 22,005.342$
