If the volume for 3-D polyhedra A is 300 cm3 and the volume for 3-D polyhedral B is 900 cm3, what is the percent of change from A to B?

lets get to work
OpenStudy (sweetnikkie072):
(final value-initial value/initial value) * 100
(900-300/300) * 100
OpenStudy (sweetnikkie072):
you just have to find the percent change right?

no you r right..but..this is the formula..i dunno if the value provided are correct or no
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Wait. So if 900-300 is 600, and it moved up 600... and... isn't 600 300 percent of 300?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Or I may be completely off, I was just guessing, haha
