Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]p + 0.07p[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of a single scoop of ice cream is given as p.

The price has increased by 7%.

We need to calculate 7% of p and add it to p.

7% of p=0.07p

We add it to p, to obtain:

p+0.07p=1.07p

Therefore an equivalent expression is

p+0.07p
