Question

The point Megamarket sold 200 peaches last season. This season they sold 250 . What was the percent increase on sales?

Answer 1

Ok if they sold 400 then the increase would be at an 100 percentile....but they are at 250....which is one fourth of the percentile which is 25percent

Answer 2

Answer:

$25\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

we  know  that

$200$ peaches represent the $100\%$

the increase in sales is equal to

$250-200=50\ peaches$

so by proportion

Find the percent increase  

$\frac{100}{200}=\frac{x}{50}\\\\ x=50*100/200\\\\ x=25\%$
