The stock price rose by 14%
Percentage is the fraction of a sum expressed as a number out of hundred.
Percentage price increase = (change in price / initial price) x 100
In order to determine the answer, the following information is needed :
New price - Initial price
$57 - $50 = $7
Percentage increase in stock price : ($7 / $50) x 100 = 14%
In order to determine the percentage increase in the stock price, express the increase in price as a fraction of the initial price and multiply by 100

Between k and m
Is your answer
Answer: Choice B
They did not perform the cross multiplication properly
The correct step should be m*24 = 8*15 which solves to m = 5
========================================================
Explanation:
In general, if we had the equation A/B = C/D, then it cross multiplies to A*D = B*C. We refer to this as cross multiplication because of the shape made when we connect the terms (to figure out what multiplies with what). The diagram below shows what I mean.
So that's why m/8 = 15/24 cross multiplies to m*24 = 8*15
Simplifying things a bit leads to 24m = 120. Then we divide both sides by 24 to fully isolate m and we get m = 120/24 = 5. Therefore, m = 5.
To find the contrapositive, you negate the hypothesis and the conclusion of the statement, and then switch their positions in the statement such that the conclusion becomes the hypothesis and vice versa:
If two variables are directly proportional, then their graph is a linear function.
If two variables are not directly protional, then their graph is not a linear function.
