Question

A number is increased from 125 to 150; find the percentage increase. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

first number = 125

second number = 150

difference between them = 150-125 = 25

so the increase Percentage

= % increase = Increase ÷ Original Number × 100

$= \frac{25}{125} \times 100 \\ = \frac{25}{5} \times 4 \\ = 5 \times 4 = 20\%$

increase Percentage = 20%
