Increase in enrollment is by 70 from 180 so increase %=increase in number /original no×100=70/180×100=38.8

Answer 2

Answer:

$38.88\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of enrollment in class 5 last year = 180

The number of enrollment in class 5 this year = 250

Change in enrollment = 250-180 = 70

Now we are supposed to find the percentage increase

Percentage increase = $\frac{change}{Initial} \times 100$

Percentage increase = $\frac{70}{180} \times 100$

Percentage increase = $38.88\%$

Hence the percentage increase in the enrollment is  $38.88\%$
