Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{16.98 - 12.56}{16.98} \times 100 = 26[/tex]

Answer:

35.191083%

Step-by-step explanation:

12.56/100=0.1256 (1%)

That's one percent of 12.56. How much by 0.1256 (1% of 12.56) is 16.98 (rised price)?

I used a two-step equation to get the answer

  • x*0.1256 = 16.98
  •   /0.1256  /0.1256

Divide both sides to get

  • x       =  135.191083

Now just subtract 100 because that was the old value

  • 135.191083 - 100 = 35.191083

and you get 35.191083. Therefore, the answer is D.
