Answer:
Remember that the percent change formula is (difference/original) x 100 and that in a percent increase, the original value will be the smaller of the two numbers.
234 - 200 = 34 is the difference.
Divide that value by the smaller of the two values 200. 34 ÷ 200 = .17.
Multiply .17 by 100 to find that the percent increase is 17%.

DIVIDE SMALLER VALUE OF TWO VALUES
200.34 ÷ 200 = .17
