Mrs. Mask looked at another hotel. She waited a week before she decided to book nights at that hotel, and now the prices have increased. The original price was $1195. The price for the same room and same number of nights is now $2075. What is the percent increase? Round to the nearest whole percent. Explain and Show your work.
To find my answer, I
subtracted 1195 from 2075 to get 880. Then I divided: 880 ÷ 1195 =
0.7364016736401674. Multiply that by 100 to get 73.64016736401674. Lastly, I
rounded to the nearest whole percent to get 74.
