of shoes. On Monday, the shoes
were on sale for %40.00, but
because they became popular, by
Saturday they price had risen to
$44.00. What is the percent of
increase on the price from
Monday to Saturday?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information

Monday price is $40

Saturday price is $44

This shows that the price increased from $40 to $44

Difference between the Monday and Satirday prices are $44-$40=$4

Taking Monday price to be the base day then expressing the difference to base day price as a percentage will be given by [tex]\frac {4\times 100\%}{40}=10\%[/tex]

Therefore, price increased expressed as a percentage from Monday to Saturday is 10%
