thx u!
The answer is C. 50%.
(180/120)*100% = 150%
150-100 - 50%
No problem at all! Let's calculate the percent of increase for the given values.
To find the percent of increase, we need to determine the difference between the new value and the original value, and then express that difference as a percentage of the original value.
In this case, the original value is 120 minutes, and the new value is 180 minutes.
First, subtract the original value from the new value:
180 minutes - 120 minutes = 60 minutes
Next, we need to express this difference as a percentage of the original value.
To do this, divide the difference by the original value and multiply by 100:
(60 minutes / 120 minutes) * 100 = 50%
Therefore, the percent of increase from 120 minutes to 180 minutes is 50%.
So, the correct answer in this case is option C - 50%.
