In this problem, you are given two quantities:
- the base value of 4.70%, and
- the changed value of 5.30%.
They want you calculate the percent of increase.
+----------------------------------------------------------------+
| In this problem it does not matter, what quantities |
| they are and what is their dimension units |
| (percents, kilograms, milliliters, cubic meters, amperes etc.) |
| All such problems are solved in the same way. |
+----------------------------------------------------------------+
- first you calculate the change of the values, from the basic value to the changed value.
In this problem this change is 5.30-4.70 = 0.6.
- then you relate the change value to the base value.
In this problem this ratio is .
- finally, you multiply the ratio by 100 to get the percentage
In this problem, you get = 12.76595745%. ANSWER
You may round the answer in any way you want or in any way as instructed.
Solved, and you have a complete explanation.
