When the price goes from $1.49 to $3.00, what percentage increase is that?
437292
The price has increased by 101.34%\n\nI used to rate of change formula:\n\n[(3 - 1.49) / 1.49] * 100

The increase is (7-0)/0 which is undefined.  You sold infinitely more units in April than you did in March.

1) Percentage change = [(new price - old price) / old price] x 100\nso: \n[($58.56 - $48) / $48] x 100 = 22%\n\n2) \na + b = 73 \nwhere a = number of dimes\nwhere b = number of quarters\n[ie. some number of dimes plus some number of quarters equals 73 coins]\n\nFirst, write it in terms of dollar value.\n($0.10 x a) + ($0.25 x b) = $13\n[this means: some number of dimes multiplied by their dollar value, plus some number of quarters multiplied by their dollar value, equals $13]\n\nRemember that "a + b = 73"?\nIt can be written as "a = 73 - b"\n\nPut this relationship into: ($0.10 x a) + ($0.25 x b) = $13\n($0.10 x [73 - b]) + ($0.25 x b) = $13\n\nWhich gives:\n$7.3 - 0.1b + 0.25b = $13\n\nOrganise the "b"s into one side, the integers into the other:\n0.15b = 5.7\nb = 38\n\nThis means you need 38 quarters.\n\nSince you had a total of 73 coins to play with, and 38 are already known to be quarters, 35 must be dimes.

Basically this is a class on "what if" scenarios.  "What if the company raises the price of a widget by $1.25?  What will that do to our sales?  What is the projected increase or decrease in sales stated in terms of a percentage?"\n\nIt is more complicate than that but that is essentially it.

Easiest way: change 5% to its decimal form, 0.05, and multiply this by 1500.00

1.5%*$127500=(1.5/100)*$127500\n=0.015*$127500\n=$1912.50

.47\n\n47/100 \n\nSo that you understand it, everytime you want to change a percentage to decimal, you take out the % and divide it between 100\n\nFor decimals, you take out the % and write the number you have above (here/100) 100\n\nHope it helps, have a nice day

3% equals .03 which are the bad, and 1.00 is 100% so u subtract .03 from 1 to get .97 which are the good

Yes, the typical COLA increase is 3.5%. Some organizations link it to inflation, so it could vary (1-4%). It does put into perspective the "typical" raises the most employers give, where the range is usually (0-5%). If you recieve a 3-4% increase in the past few years, chances are that your purchase power is actually declning. The average housing and transportation (and healthcare) costs have increased 5-15% per year, so a 3% raise would mean that you would be farther away from your dream of being able to buy that house, or afford a car. Now I must go and cry myself to sleep...

% increase=difference/original value\n\ntherefore % inc. =(21.0-20.7)/20.7\n                 =0.3/20.7\n                 =0.014492\n                 =0.01% to nearest hundredth
