Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is option b) 27.5%.

Explanation:

To begin, we must analyze the information we have.

We know that new restaurant earnings are now $ 33456 and old earnings were $ 26230.

In order to know what the percentage of earnings is, what we must do is divide the new earnings by the old ones:

33456 : 26230 = 1.27548 ...

As we can see, the result is 27.5%.

If you still have any doubts, we can get that percentage to check it:

(26230 . 27.5): 100 =

(721325): 100 = 7213.5

That would be the amount of earnings, added to the initial amount:

7213.25 + 26230 = 33443.25 (Since the 27.5 percentage was not exact, we will have an approximate number).

Given this information we can say that the correct answer is option B.
