To find the increase from 1997 to 1998, you could substitute in numbers and then determine the percent increase based on those numbers.

Ex: 500 to 1000 (96-97)
      1000 to 2000 (97-98)
Percent increase is (2000-1000)/1000 or 100% increase.

Testing another set of numbers will result in the same thing.

Ex: 200 to 400 (96-97)
      400 to 800 (97-98)
Percent increase is (800-400)400 or 100% increase.

The percent increase is 100%.

Answer:

The number of students increase from 1997 to 1998 by 100 %.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of students in the year 1996.

According to the question,

The number of students on 1997 = 2x

Also, the number of students on 1998 = 4x

Thus, the percentage increase in the number of students from 1997 to 1998

=\frac{\text{the number of students on 1998-the number of students on 1997}}{\text{the number of students on 1997}}\times 100

=\frac{4x-2x}{2x}\times 100

=\frac{2x}{2x}\times 100

=100\%

Let us consider 48 as 100%
so,
48------------->100
x -------------->75
therefore,
100*x=48*75
x=(48*75)/100
x=36
