hollys business made $80,000 last year. this year she made $90,000. what is the percentage change?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

It increases by 12.5%

Explanation:

In order to calculate how much for the percentage changes, you have to calculate the amount difference in 2 years :

$90 000 - $80 000

= $10 000

Next, you have to divide it by the original amount which is $80 000 and multiply by 100 :

[tex]percentage = \frac{10000}{80000} \times 100[/tex]

[tex]percentage = \frac{1}{8} \times 100[/tex]

[tex]percentage = \frac{100}{8} = 12.5[/tex]

Answer:

answer is 12.5%

Explanation:

first you minus the previous years profit from this years profit

eg.90,000-80,000=10,000

then you take the profit over the previous and multiply by 100%

10000/80000=1/8

1/8 × 100%=12.5%

there you have it!
