Answer: 23%

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{52}{64} =\frac{100}{x}$

$x=\frac{64*100}{52} \\x=123$

123-100=23%

Answer 2

Answer:

23%

Step-by-step explanation:

what we know:

the original price- $52

the new price- $64

The definition of percent increase is:

new price-$64

----------------------

original price-$52

We determine the percent of increase:

64-52                     12                          23

-------------     =        ------  ----> 0.23 =   ------

52                          52                          100

                                    -23%-
