The math club at a middle school increased from 62 students to 78 in one school year. what is the approximate percent of increase? a)3.85% b) 4.875% c) 21% d) 26%

The answer is D for your problem

The answer is d) 26%
percentage increase is calculated by finding the difference between the older and newer number of students, then dividing that value by the original amount and then times 100. So in this case it was
78-62=16
(16/62) ×100
=25.8% rounded off to 26%

It is 198,87032,750 + 375 = 33145 so, we take the 6% and we make it a decimal (0.6) and multiply that, then that is your answer

The answer would be 10.
