Question

PLS ANSWER

An employee's time at work increased from 32 hours per week to 40 hours per week. By what percentage did the
time at work per week increase?

Answer 1

You have to take the ratio so you divide the new value on the old value and compare It with 100 so you write

(40)/(32)=(x)/(100)

And this means that x = 125

So the ratio of the increase of the new time is 125%

But the real increase is 125 - 100 = 25%

Answer 2

25%
If you add 25% to 32 your answer will be 40
