A 20% addition to something is 1.2 as a multiplier as you do 1+(x/100), where x is the percentage increase. So 600 x 1.2 = 720, so the Point Megamark stocked 720 pears last season

Answer:

Megamark stocked 720 pears.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The stored organic pears by Renmark = 600,

Also, the Point Megamarket stocks 20% more organic pears each season than that of Renmark,

So, the stored organic pears by Megamarket = 600 + 20 % of 600

[tex]=600+\frac{20\times 600}{100}[/tex]

[tex]=600+\frac{12000}{100}[/tex]

[tex]=600+120[/tex]

[tex]=720[/tex]
