Question

Josh currently bench presses 150 lbs. He increases that amount by 10% a month for 3 months. About how much can bench press now?

Answer 1

10% of 150 is 15.

15*3 (months) + 45

150 + 45 = 195lbs

Answer 2

150 x 1.1
((1.1 is 110% of 150 so 10% more))
165 x 1.1
181.5 x 1.1
199.65 x 1.1 =
219.615
((You might need to simplify))
