Question

What will be the price of gas if there is a 27% increase from $2.67 per gallon?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is $3.39

Step-by-step explanation:

the question states an increase in price. this means that we need to multiply the current prince ($2.67) by 127%.

drop the percent and put 127 over 100

$\frac{127}{100}$

multiply

$\frac{127}{100} *\frac{2.67}{1}\\\\ \frac{339.09}{100} \\\\3.39$

we are dealing with currency so rounding to the hundredths place will suffice.

hope this helps :)
