In 2015, the Miami Dolphins sold 42,365 season tickets. In 2014 they sold 40,006 season tickets.
To the nearest whole percent, what was the percent of increase in
season tickets between 2014
and 2015?

Respuesta :

Find the difference between the two years then divide that by the first year amount.


42,365 - 40,006 = 2,359

2,359 / 40,006 = 0.0589

Multiply by 100 to get the percent:

0.0589 x 100 = 5.89%

Rounded to nearest whole percent = 6%

Answer 6%
