Question

what is the percent increase from 250 to 900?

1. write the percent change formula for an increase.

\\(\text{percent increase} = \frac{\text{amount of increase}}{\text{original amount}}\\)

1. substitute the known quantities for the amount of the increase and the original amount.

\\(\text{percent increase} = \frac{900 - 250}{250}\\)

1. subtract.

\\(\text{percent increase} = \frac{650}{250}\\)

1. express the ratio as a percent: %

Calculate the ratio

Using the Percent of Change knowledge point
\[
\text{Ratio} = \frac{650}{250} = \frac{65}{25} = 2.6
\]

Convert to percent

Using the Percent of Change knowledge point
\[
2.6 \times 100\% = 260\%
\]
