Question

The number 68 is increased to 73. What is the percentage by which the number was

Answer 1

Answer: 1.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

To get a percentage you want to divide the ending number by the base number

73 / 68 = 1.07

It says to round to the neartest tenth, when rounding if the number is 5 or above you round up, if under 5 your number stays the same

7 is higher than 5 so we round up

1.1%
