Question

Increase 386.3 by 4%

Answer 1

Given:

Increase 386.3 by  4%.

To find:

The value for given statement.

Solution:

We have,

Initial value = 386.3

Increasing rate = 4%

The increased value is

$\text{New value}=\text{Initial value + Increasing rate }\times \text{Initial value}$

$\text{New value}=386.3+\dfrac{4}{100}\times 386.3$

$\text{New value}=386.3+15.452$

$\text{New value}=401.752$

Therefore, the required value is 401.752.
