The question is incomplete, so I looked for similar ones and found:
<em>Of the 25 girls on the Alden Middle School soccer team, 40% also play on a travel team. How many of the girls on the middle school team also play on a travel team?
</em>
we can solve this the following way:
25 girls on the soccer team x 40% that play on a travel team = 10 girls form the soccer team that play on a travel team
we can also multiply (25 girls x 40) / 100 = 10 girls
First: work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing. Increase = New number - Original Number
Then: divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. % Increase = Increase ÷Original Numberx100<span> 30 - 22 = 8 8</span> ÷ 22x100 = 36.3636363636
