<PRE><B>Question 1127610</B>
The library at a certain university reported that journal prices had increased by 130% over a period of 10 years. The report concluded that this represented a price increase of 13% each year. 
If journal prices had indeed increased by 13% each year, what percentage increase would that give over 10 years? (Round your answer as a percentage to the nearest whole number.) 
Start price:: p
---
Price after 10 years:: 1.13^10p = 3.395p
-------
Percentage Answer to nearest whole number::: 300%
