➤ Given :-

Original value :- 1141

New value :- 1333

➤ To Find :-

Percentage of increased value...............

➤ Formula required :-

${ \large\tt \dashrightarrow \orange{ \boxed{ \gray {\tt \dfrac{Increased \: Value}{Original \: Value} \times 100}}}}$

➤ Solution :-

First, we should find the increased value in numerical value by subtracting the new value and original value................

Increased value :-

${ \tt \longrightarrow 1333 - 1141}$

${ \tt \longrightarrow 192}$

Now,

Percentage of increased value :-

${ \tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{192}{1141} \times 100}$

${ \tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{192 \times 100}{1141} = \dfrac{19200}{1141} }$

${ \tt \longrightarrow \cancel \dfrac{19200}{1141} = \boxed{ \tt 16.8 \bf\%}}$

$\Huge\therefore$The percentage of increased value is 16.8 $\bf\%$.
