<h3>Answer: Choice B) 122%</h3>

==========================================

Work Shown:

A = 1250 is the initial amount

B = 2780 is the new amount

C = percent change = unknown for now

The formula to use is

C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100

to calculate the percent change.

Basically we calculate the change (B-A) first and then divide that over the original amount A to compute the decimal form of the answer, which is then converted over to percentage form. The "100" tacked on at the end is what converts from decimal to percent form.

---------

C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100

C = [ (2780 - 1250)/1250 ] * 100

C = (1530/1250)*100

C = 1.224 * 100

C = 122.4%

C = 122%

---------

The positive C value indicates we have a percent increase. If C were negative, then we'd have a percent decrease.

Answer:

It’s D, 18 cuts

Step-by-step explanation:

She cut a 6 yard long ribbon into 1/3 yard pieces so you would have to divide to get the answer and the steps to dividing is

Stay the same, change the sign, flip it
so the 6 would stay the same, you would change the division sign to multiplication because division is the opposite of multiplication, and you would flip the 1/3 into 3/1 so

6 x 3/1 would be 18/1 which is just 18
