Answer: The approximate percent increase is 121.42857%. This is a rounded value. To get this, first you would need to find out which increased and in what direction. Of course, the 70 turned into an 85. So you can divide 85 by 70 and receive a number. Then in whatever form you found it, decimal, fraction, or even percent straight away, ensure the value is a percentage.
70 -> 85
85/70
About 1.21 [decimal]
1.21 x 100 = 121 [add the %]
121% [rounded]

Answer:
Tues=8 Weds=24 Thurs=120
Step-by-step explanation:
The question can be modeled by the equation x+3x+15x=152
x is the amount sold on tuesday, 3x is 3 times the amount sold on tuesday so it represents wednesday and 15x represents thursday as it is 5 times the amount sold on wednesday.
Now we just need to solve for x to figure out how many he sold each day.
x+3x+15x=19x
19x=152
x=152/19
x=8
To find the amount sold on each day just mulitiply x by the coefficient
Tuesday = x = 8
Wednesday = 3x = 3*8 = 24
Thursday = 15x = 15*8 = 120
We can't help unless we know what to "rewrite"
