In order to find out the percentage of the increase, we can substract the increased price from the original price, and then compare it with the original price.
So 184-115=$69
The price was increased with $69 from the original price.
Lets divide it with the original price and multiply it with 100 to find the percentage that was increased.
(69/115)*100 =
=7935/100
=79.35%
