250
3. Subtract.

250
4. Express the ratio as a percent:
%       

Respuesta :

900 - 250 = 650

650 / 250 = 13 / 3 = 2.6 = 260%

Answer:

260 %

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Since, the percentage formula is,

[tex]\text{Percent Increase}=\frac{\text{Amount of Increase}}{\text{Original Amount}}[/tex]

2) Given,

Original amount = 250,

New amount = 900

So, the amount of increase = New amount - Original amount = 900 - 250 = 650

By substituting the values,

[tex]\text{Percentage increase}=\frac{650}{250}[/tex]

3) Now, for expressing the ratio into percentage we need to multiply by 100,

[tex]\frac{650}{250}\times 100=\frac{65000}{250}= 260\%[/tex]
