Question

Last year the company you work for did 232,000 in business. This year you anticipate an increase of 7% how much business do you expect to do this year?

Answer 1

Okay, simple.
You need to find 7% of 232,000 and add that number to 232,000
Here's how:
232,000 * 0.07  = 16,240
And then add!
232,000 + 16,240 = 248,240
The expected business is 248,240

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

7% of 232,000 is 16,240
232,000 + 16,240 is 248,240
so 248,240 is the answer
