Question

What is the percent of change in 6 yards to 36 yards

Answer 1

Answer:

The percent of change in 6 yards to 36 yards is 500% .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

$Percentage = \frac{Change\ in\ value\times 100}{initial\ value}$

Where

Change in value = Final value - initial value

As given

The percent of change in 6 yards to 36 yards.

Final value = 36 yards

initial value = 6 yards

Change in value = 36 - 6

                           = 30 yards

Put in the formula

$Percentage = \frac{30\times 100}{6}$

$Percentage = \frac{3000}{6}$

Percentage = 500%

Therefore the percent of change in 6 yards to 36 yards is 500% .

Answer 2

This is equal to the amount of change over the original amount
 In this case the amount of change is 30   (36-6=30)

$\frac{30}{6}$  = 5 
And 5 = 500% percent of change

Note that this is different than: What percent of 6 is 36?  That would be 600%$\frac{36}{6}$
