Question

Last year, there were 380 students at woodland middle school. This year, the student population will increase by 5%. What will be the school's increased student population?

Answer 1

399 because 380 x .05 =19 and 19+380
=399

Answer 2

380 devided by 10 gives you 10 percent so it is 38 then half it for 5 percent wich is 19 then you just add 19 to 380 wich is 399
