What is the percent of increase from 60 to 75? A. 80% B. 25% C. 20% D. 15%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D! 15%!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

75/60 = 1.25 or 125% 125% - 100% = 25% increased

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no, reno.....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A 25% increase would be 50% to 75%.. A 15% increase in 60% to 75%.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Answer is D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's true Reno, except for one problem with your method, the numbers 60 and 75 are not percents in this case, they are just numbers, so it's not as simple as finding the difference

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Right, my mistake. But yes, the answer is D :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nope, Jinx provided a great explanation, and is correct for this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But he didn't have the ending correct answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry, my bad.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol... this is too much, lets just end this, jinx is correct, Reno, you're not helping

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Haha, okay. At the end of the day I had the correct answer. So alright
