a. Find the percent of increase in the newspaper’s circulation from 2000 to 2001 and from 2001 to 2002.
b. Which period had a higher percent of increase, 2000 to 2001, or 2001 to 2002?


PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW U GOT THE ANSWER

Respuesta :

In 2000 - 3250 
In 2001 - 3640 

3640 - 3250 = 390 

(390/3250)*100 = 12% 

2001 - 3640 
2002 - 4100 


4100 - 3640 = 460 

(460/3640) * 100 = 12.6%
2000 to 2001 is 39%
2001 to 2002 is 46% 

So 2001 to 2002 was the higher percentange
