//Work backwards from what your original equation would be.

54 = 75/100 * x
54 * 100 = 75 * x
(54 * 100) / 75 = x
x = 72

A pair of jeans cost $32 last year this year they cost $38 what was the percent increase? PLEASE ANSWER NEED HELP!

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

18.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

percent increase = $\frac{increase}{original cost}$ × 100%

Increase in cost = $38 - $32 = $6

percent increase = $\frac{6}{32}$ × 100% = $\frac{6(100)}{32}$ = 18.75%

natali 33 [55]

1) May: 248$ and june 265$. The difference is 17$ and then you divide the difference with the old price: 17/ 248 = 6,85%
2) Same method, the difference is 59$ so 27,44%'
3) The difference is 9,5$ so you answer is 63,3%
4) The difference is 10$ divided by the original price: 10/24 = 41,66%
