Question

The icecream parlor has 30 flavors, but for the last week they have only had 25 flavors. Find the percent of change. Tell if it is an increase or decrease.

Answer 1

Answer:

The percent of change is 20%.

And it is increased by last month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The ice cream parlor has 30 flavors, but for the last week they have only had 25 flavors.

Now, to find the percent of change.

Flavors ice cream parlor has = 30.

Flavors last week they had = 25.

So, the flavors increased from last week by:

$30-25=5\ flavors.$

Now, to get the percent of change:

$\frac{5}{25} \times 100$

$=\frac{500}{25}$

$=20\%.$

Thus, the percent of change is 20%.

The flavor is increased by last month.

Therefore, the percent of change is 20%.

And it is increased by last month.
