Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Initial cost of a t-shirt = $30

Final cost of a t-shirt = $37.50

We need to find percent of change. The percentage change in any value is given by :

[tex]\%=\dfrac{\text{final value-initial value}}{\text{initial value}}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{37.5-30}{30}\times 100\\\\=25\%[/tex]

Hence, the percentage error is 25%.
