Can an amount be increased by more than 100%. If you explain I’ll make you brainliest.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, it can.

A 100% increase means it's the original amount plus the original amount (2x). 100+100=200

A 150% increase would be the original amount plus 1.5 times the original amount. 100+150=250
