High School

Last year, you bought a pair of boots for $84. This year, your friend bought the same pair of boots for $120. What is the percent change in the cost of the boots?

Answer :

Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

70% of 120 is 84. So take the remainder of 70 (30, as %'s go up to 100.) and that's the percent left. We can "fact check this" the other way around as well.

30% of 120 = 36.

84 + 36 = 120.

The price of the boots have changed/raised 30%.

Hope this helps and have a nice day!
