Suppose 36 videos are added to a video collection that has 24 videos. What is the percentage of change.

I got 50 percent....my mom says it's 150 percent.

thanks!

Didn't you read this answer to your previous post?

Mom is right again! :-)

1.5 * 24 = 36

Aren't we moms always right? <g>

To calculate the percentage of change, we can use the following formula:

Percentage change = (Amount of change / Initial value) * 100

In this case, the initial value is 24 videos and the amount of change is +36 videos (since they were added). So we have:

Percentage change = (36 / 24) * 100
Percentage change = 1.5 * 100
Percentage change = 150%

Therefore, your mom is correct. The percentage of change is 150%.
