<span>Average profit from the sale of 1 piece of furniture = 3x + 1
Average number of pieces of furniture that can be made using current supply of raw materials = 3x - 1.
Therefore,
Average profit of total furniture = Average profit X Average total of furniture sold
= (3x + 1) X (3x - 1)
= 9x^2 - 1</span>
For this case you can solve the problem by applying a simple rule of three in which we have
520 ---> 100%
800 ---> x
Clearing x we have
x = (800/520) * 100 = 154%
the percentage increase in cost was
154-100 = 54%
answer
the percentage increase in cost was 54%
