Question

A heard of elk increased from 75 in 1998 to 310 in 2005. Find the annual percent of increase for this heard.

Answer 1

Answer:

$313.3333\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on given conditions, formulate:

$\frac{310 - 75}{75}$

Calculate the sum:

$\frac{253}{75}$

Simplify it:

$\frac{47}{15}$

Convert that to a decimal:

$3.133333$

Multiply that:

$3.133333 \times \frac{100}{100}$

Calculate that:

$\frac{3.133333 \times 100}{100}$

Convert that:

$313.3333\%$
