let's plug in the value of y :
60 divided by 4 is 15. so 2*15= 30 // 6*15= 90 // 8*15=120
Given:
Original or base : 40
New amount : 72
We need to find the difference of the new amount and the original amount
72 - 40 = 32
We then divide the difference by the original amount
32/40 = 0.80
We multiply the quotient by 100%
0.80 x 100% = 80%
The percentage of change is 80%
Answer:
0.81 (rounded to the nearest hundredth) & 81%
Step-by-step explanation:
150/185 = 30/37 ≈ 0.81 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
0.81 is 81%
