Question

During their first home game, the Eagles soccer team drew a total of 176 fans. By the second game, this number grew to 202 fans. What was the percent increase in attendance between the first two home games of the season? Round your answer to the nearest tenth, if necessary.
The answer is 14.8% but I don't know how to show my work for it.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial # = 176 fans

Final # = 202 fans

Increase = 202 - 176 = 26 fans

% increase = 100% x (Increase / initial #)

= 100 x (26/176)

= 100 x 0.1477

= 14.78%
