Question

Elena harvested 75 kg of apples last autumn. This autumn, her harvest increased by 24%. How many kilograms of apples did she harvest this autumn?

Answer 1

She harvested 93 kg of apples.

First you need to set it up like this:
X/75=24/100

Then you cross multiply and get:
1800=100x

The you isolate the variable (divide both sides) and get 18

75+18=93
