Ashley was 98 pounds one year ago. If she now weighs 112 pounds, what is the percent increase in her weight?

A. 12.5%
B. 14.2%
C. 15.3%
D. 18.5%

Respuesta :

B.14.2 because you subtract the 98 to the 112
Percentage increase =
increased amount / Original amount X 100

Increased amount = 112
Original amount = 98

Percentage increase = 112/98 X 100
= 14.2.
