Answer:
the profit percentage increase is, 15%
Step-by-step explanation:
As per the given statement:
On Easter sale;
Profit of shop makes in march is, 2750 pounds.
and
Profit of shop makes in April is, 3162.50 pounds.
We have to calculate the percentage increase.
Calculate the Percentage increase:
- First do the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.
- then, we divide the increase in number by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.
Difference in profit increase from March to April = [tex]3162.50 - 2750 = 412.50[/tex] pounds.
Now, by definition of percentage increase;
Profit percentage increase = [tex]\frac{412.50}{2750} \times 100[/tex]
Simplify:
Profit Percentage increase is, 15%
