Question

A game costs $39.00. But the new special edition version is going to be $56.94. What is the increased percent?

Answer 1

Answer:

46%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Make an expression

$39.00 * x = 56.94$

$39x = 56.94$

Step 2:  Divide both sides by 39

$39x / 39 = 56.94 / 39$

$x = 1.46$

Step 3:  Find the percent

$1.46 - 1$ -> Gives us the increased percent

$0.46 * 100$

46%

Answer:  46%
