Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot]

Percentage increase is the measure of the increase in a quantity expressed as a percentage of the original or initial value. It is calculated using the formula:

Percentage increase = ((New value - Original value)/Original value) x 100

For example, if the original value was 100 and the new value is 120, the percentage increase can be calculated as:

Percentage increase = ((120-100) / 100) x 100
= 20%

This means that the value has increased by 20% from its original value.
