Answer:
The value of the house after adding the garage is $135,700.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
value of house before adding garage = $118,200.00
we need to find the value of house after adding two car garage.
Solution,
Since after adding two car garage the value of the house increased by 15%.
So firstly we will find out the 15% of the value of the house after adding garage.
So we can say that;
15% of the value of the house after adding garage is equal to 15 divided by 100 the multiplied with the value of the house before adding garage.
15% of the value of the house after adding garage = [tex]\frac{15}{100}\times118,000=\$17,700[/tex]
Now, The value of the house after adding garage is equal to the sum of value of house before adding garage and 15% of value of house before adding garage.
We can frame it in equation form as;
The value of the house after adding garage = [tex]\$118,000+\$17,000=\$135,700[/tex]
Hence The value of the house after adding the garage is $135,700.
