Given is the price increase of a ticket from 50p to 60p.

Using the concept of fractions, we can find the ratio of new price to old price as follows :-

\frac{new \;\; price}{old \;\; price} = \frac{60p}{50p} =\frac{6}{5}

So the increase in price is \frac{6}{5} times old price of the ticket.

Using the formula of percentage, we can find the percentage change in price as follows :-

Percentage = \frac{(new\;\;price \;-\; old\;\;price) }{old \;\; price}*100 \\\\ Percentage = \frac{60p-50p}{50p}*100 \\\\ Percentage = \frac{10p}{50p}*100 \\\\ Percentage = 20\;\%

Hence, Percentage increase is 20% of the original price.

A bus on a regular schedule takes 3 1/4 hours to reach its destination. The express bus takes 2 1/2 hours to make the same trip.

To find this answer, we should subtract 2 1/2 from 3 1/4. The simplest way to do this is to turn them into improper fractions, found the least common denominator, and subtract the numerators.

3 1/4=13/4
2 1/2=5/2

The least common multiple is 4, so we should multiply the numerator and denominator of 5/2 by 2.

5/2=10/4

Now we can just subtract the numerators.

13/4-10/4=3/4

Using the math above, we can see that it saves D. 3/4 hours.
