Answer:
Option D - [tex]\frac{\$2.70-\$2.40}{\$2.40}=\frac{p}{100}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Last year, the price of the hamburger Wonderful Whopper was $2.40. This year the price increased to $2.70. If p is the percent increase in the price of the Whopper.
To find : Which proportion can be used to compute p?
Solution :
Original price - $2.40
New price - $2.70
Percentage increase = p
The increased in percentage formula is
[tex]\% \text{Increase}=\frac{\text{New-Original}}{\text{Original}} \times 100[/tex]
Substitute the value,
[tex]p=\frac{\$2.70-\$2.40}{\$2.40} \times 100[/tex]
or [tex]\frac{\$2.70-\$2.40}{\$2.40}=\frac{p}{100}[/tex]
Therefore, option D is correct.
