Answer:
0,5
Step-by-step explanation:
The council tax bill before the increase is £1240
The equation that represents the percentage increase in council tax bill is :
percentage increase x t = £62
Where t represents the initial council tax bill - council tax bill before the 5% increase
5% x t = £62
0.05 x t = £62
Divide both sides of the equation by 0.05
t = £62 / 0.05 = £1240
To check if the answer derived is correct : 5% x 1240 = 62.
