Answer:
40 % increase
Step-by-step explanation:
percent increase = (new - original)/ original
percent increase = (35-25)/25
= 10/25
=.4
multiply by 100
40 percent
4 500-60 = 4 440
4 440/38 = 116.8
At most they would be able to invite 116 people to the reception with their budget.
All you have to do is divide 7 by 8 (so 7/8) and you get the answer: 0.875! hope that helps! :)
You should use Order of Operations or PEDMAS for this (Parenthesis, Exponents, Division and Multiplication in the order they appear, Addition and Subtraction in the order they appear). So we do the 2+12 because that is in parentheses first which gives 14-3+6. Next we do 14-3 because there are no exponents and no division or multiplication, which gives 11+6. This yields your answer, 17.
