Respuesta :

Answer:

4.61% increase (round up as needed)

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the smaller amount from the larger to find the dollar difference

[tex]68-65=3[/tex]

Then divide the difference by the original amount

[tex]3/65=0.0461[/tex]

Move the decimal point over two spaces (multiply by 100) to get your percentage

0.0461=4.61%

Round up as needed.
