Explanation:

The complete question is

Draw a diagram to represent each situation:

The amount of paper that the copy shop used this month was a 25% increase of the amount of paper the used last month

Let

x ----> the amount of paper the copy shop used last month

y ---> the amount of paper the copy shop used this month

we know that

`100\%+25\%=125\%=125/100=1.25`

so

`y=1.25x`

Example

For x=4

`y=1.25(4)=5`
