<span>The Fugitive Slave Acts were a pair of federal laws that allowed for the capture and return of runaway slaves within the territory of the United States. Enacted by Congress in 1793, the first Fugitive Slave Act authorized local governments to seize and return escaped slaves to their owners and imposed penalties on anyone who aided in their flight. Widespread resistance to the 1793 law led to the passage of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, which added more provisions regarding runaways and levied even harsher punishments for interfering in their capture. The Fugitive Slave Acts were among the most controversial laws of the early 19th century.</span>

Since the current vacuum sales is compared to the previous vacuum sales, the previous vacuum sales will be used as the basis of either increase or decrease of sales in the current year. In this instance, it is increase in sales.
We simply divide 567 by 540 and multiply the quotient with 100% and deduct 100% from the product to get the percent increase.
567 / 540 = 1.05 x 100% = 105% - 100% = 5% percent of increase.
or simply get the difference in sales and divide it by the previous sales and multiply by 100%
567 - 540 = 27 / 540 = 0.05 x 100% = 5%
