The percent increase in the number of games the Pelicans won compared to last year is 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1 :

% increase = (difference between previous and new value / lower value) [tex]\times[/tex] 100

  • Pelicans won last year = 16 games
  • Pelican won this year = 20 games

step 2 :

% increase = ((20 - 16) / 16) [tex]\times[/tex] 100

⇒ (4 / 16) [tex]\times[/tex] 100

⇒ (1 / 4) [tex]\times[/tex] 100

⇒ 25 %

∴ The number of games the Pelicans won this year is 25% greater than the number of games compared to last year.
