Answer 2

Answer:

28%

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial cost of table = Rs.7500

New cost of table = Rs.9600

Change in price = New price - Initial price

Change in price = 9600-7500

Change in price = 2100

Percentage increase =$\frac{2100}{7500} \times 100$

                                   = 28%

Hence  the percentage increase in the cost of the table is 28%
