Question

The number of people attending the first basketball game of the season was 840. The number of people attending the last game of the season was 1,200. What was the percent increase in attendance, to nearest percent?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

percent increase = (new number - original number) / (original number) * 100

                             = (1200 - 840) / (840) * 100

                             = (360) / 840 * 100

                              = 0.4285 * 100

                              = 42.85% rounded to nearest percent = 43% <==
