Answer:

30.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the percent change formula:

(difference / original) x 100

Find the difference:

3.65 - 2.54

= 1.11

Then, plug in the difference and original:

(difference / original) x 100

(1.11 / 3.65) x 100

= 30.4

So, the percent change in the cost of gas is 30.4%
