Question

Lilly likes to collect records. Last year she had 10 records in her collection. Now she has 11 records. What is the percent increase of her collection

Answer 1

The increase was 1 record.

 

So you have to find what percentage 1 is of 10.

 

So divide 1 by 10 to get the decimal amount...  .1

 

Then multiply by 100 to get the percentage:  .1 x 100 = 10%
