Question

The number 11 is increased to 12. What is the percentage by which the number was increased, to the nearest tenth of a percent?

Answer 1

9.1%

Explanation:

You can find this answer by dividing 12 by 11. When you do that, you get that 12 is 109.1% percent of 11. 11 is obviously 100% of 11, so it increased by the difference of the two percentages, 109.1-100 = 9.1%
