The percent of change is 13%, increase.
Step-by-step explanation:

Last year the enrollment of genoa middle school was 465 students. this year the enrollment is 525.
The amount of change is: 525-465=60
That means this yr 60 more student get enrollment.
Now find the percentage change.
[tex]\text{Percent of change}=\frac{\text{Amount of change}}{\text{Orignal amount}}[/tex]
Substitute the respective values:
[tex]\text{Percent of change}=\frac{60}{465}\approx0.13[/tex]
[tex]\text{Percent of change}=13\%[/tex]
Hence, the percent of change is 13% and percentage is positive so this is a percent of increase.
