(D) 500%

Answer 1

The percentage of the increase will be 25% when the number of students in the marching band increased from 100 to 125.

What is the percentage?

The Percentage is defined as representing any number with respect to the 100. It is denoted by the sign %.

It is given in the question that the number of students in the marching band increased from 100 to 125 so we need to find the percentage increase of the students.

The percentage increase of the students will be calculated as:-

% increase=[(125-100)÷(100)]x100

% increase=[(25)÷(100)]x100

% increase= [0.25x100]

% increase= 25%

Hence the percentage of the increase will be 25% when the number of students in the marching band increased from 100 to 125.
