Answer:

<h2>30% is enrolled out-of-district.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the word problem, the number is increased by 50%.

To increase a number by a percent, multiply the number and the percent.

We can do this by changing both percents to decimals.

To change a percent to a decimal, divide it by 100.

20/100 = 0.2

50/100=0.5

The number is INCREASED by 50% so 0.5 would become 1.5.

0.2 * 1.5=0.3

<h2>0.3 = 30%.</h2>
