Question

A few years ago, Sarah acquired lanes valued at $11,200. Today the same land is valued at $11,648. Find the percent increase in the property’s value. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth if necessary

Answer 1

Answer:

4%

Step-by-step explanation:

% increase = ((new number - original number) /original number ) * 100

                             = (11648 - 11200) / 11200) * 100

                            = (448 / 11200) * 100

                            = 0.04 * 100

                            = 4% increase <===
