Answer 1

Answer:

The percent of the increase is 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The annual income of a car company  in 2017= $200,000

The annual income of a car company  in 2018= $280,000

To Find:

Increase in the income percentage=?

Solution:

$\text{{Percent increase}} = \frac{\text{{(change in income )}}}{\text{{(previous income)}}}\times 100$

$\text{{Percent increase}} = \frac{(280000 - 200000)}{200000}\times100$

$\text{{Percent increase}} = \frac{80000}{200000} \times100$

$\text{{Percent increase}} =\frac{8}{20}\times100$

$\text{{Percent increase}} = \frac{2}{5}\times 100$

$\text{{Percent increase}}= 2\times20$

Percent increase = 40%
