324 people went to an exhibit the first week. On the second week, 549 people went. What was the percent increase?

Respuesta :

First find the difference between the two weeks:

549 - 324 = 225

Now divide the difference by the first week value:

225 / 324 = 0.694 x 100 = 69.4% ( round the answer as needed).

Answer:

percent increase =69.44%

Step-by-step explanation:

original quantity =324

final quantity =549

increased quantity = 549-324 = 225

using the formula ; percent increase = Increase/original quantity ×100%

= 225/324 ×100%

=69.44%
