Answer 1

Answer:

There is an 8% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find percent change is

%change = $\frac{new-original}{original}$  x 100

So input the values that you have to get

%change = $\frac{27-25}{25}$  x 100

Now finish solving to get

% change = $\frac{2}{25}$  x 100

%change = 0.08 x 100

%change = 8%

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent change = 27 - 25

|25|

x 100 = 2

25

x 100 = 8 % (increase)

Where: 25 is the old value and 27 is the new value. In this case we have a positive change (increase) of 8 percent because the new value is greater than the old value.
