Given the statement:
530 increased by 18%
Solution:
In order to determine the answer, we simply need to take 18% of 530 first by multiplying the decimal value of 18% to 530. Then we add the product to 530. In converting a percentage into decimal, divide the percentage by 100, hence in converting a decimal to percentage, multiply the percentage by 100.
= 18/100
= 0.18
= (530)(0.18)
= 95.4
= 530 + 95.4
= 625.4
Final answer:
= 625.4
