Question

Cameron sales products for a company in Irving, TX. Last week he sold $2,400 worth of product. This week he sold $2,760 worth of products. What is the percent of increase in his sales from last week to this week?

Answer 1

Answer:  15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Sales for last month = $2,400

Sales for this month = $2,760

Increase in sales = $2,760-  $2,400

= $ 360

The percent of increase in his sales from last week to this week

$=\dfrac{\text{Increase in sales}}{\text{Sales in last week}}\times100\\\\=\dfrac{360}{2400}\times100\\\\=15\%$

Hence, the percent of increase in his sales from last week to this week = 15%
