Answer 1

Answer:

As per the given statement:

Original price of a set of feeding bowls for dogs = $9.25

Increased Price = $11.10

To find the percentage increase.

$\text{Percentage increase} = \frac{\text{Increased Price}}{\text{Original Price}} \times 100$

Substitute the given values we have;

$\text{Percentage increased} = \frac{11.10}{9.25} \times 100$

Simplify:

$\text{Percentage increased} = 120\%$

therefore, the increased percentage was 120%
