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.
