Answer:

The answer to your question is 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Number of games won last year= 16

Number of games won this year = 20

Process

1.- Use the number of games won last year as the 100% and use proportions to find the answer.

                              16 games ---------------- 100 %

                               20 games --------------    x

                               x = (20 x 100) / 16

                               x = 2000/16

                               x = 125

2.- Subtract the percent obtain to 100% to obtain the percent increase.

      Percent increase = 125 - 100

                                    = 25%
