<em>multiply both sides by 5 </em> 3(15k+10)=5(12k-9)
<em>get rid of the brackets</em> 45k+30=60k-45
<em>take away 45k to both sides</em> 30=15k-45
<em>plus 45 to both sides</em> 75=15k
<em>divide both by 15</em> k=5
The answer is 1952 because you have to add all of the numbers together
I think the percent change would be 25%
