Use cross multiplication. 42 inches is your 100%. your fraction would be 42/100
then, to find by what percent it has increased, since 47 is your new height, and you are trying to find the percentage for that, the fraction will be 47/X.

42          47 
-----       -----
100         X

(100 * 47) / 42 = X

100 multiplied by 47, then divided by 42, the result is X

your answer should be 111%. Subtract 100 from 111, to get the increased percent.

Answer: 11%

I did this last year, so it may be a little rusty. If im wrong, hopefully someone will correct me, if not, im pretty sure this looks rights. Your methods may also be different. i use cross mulitplication

For how many weeks would the class need to have car washes to earn $5000.
nikdorinn [45]
The correct answer would be for 29 weeks.
Its because if for 4 weeks the profit is $700, divide 700 and 4 which gives you $175 per week. Then divide 5000 and 175 which gives you 28.5714286. So all you have to do is round it up to the nearest whole which gives you the answer: 29 weeks.
Hope that helps. :)
