Can u guys Explain how please

anonymous · Answer

10 x 1.1 =11 so i thnk its true that he spent 110%          10 is for the hours doing his homework last week.   1.1 is the percent

amistre64 · Answer

percent of change is calculated as the difference between the start and the end, divided by the start

the percent of change in the work done is therefore:

(11-10)/10  not 11/10
