Question

Find the percentage change from 50 to 82. Indicate whether it is an increase or a decrease. If necessary, round your answer to the nearest percent.

Answer 1

Percentage change from 50 to 82, first, let's solve how much is added from 50 to 82.
=> 82 - 50 = 32
Now how many percent is 32 out of 50?
=> 32 / 50 = 0.64
=> 0.64 * 100% = 64%
thus 64% added or increased in the previous number.
