1 answer

To find the percent of increase from 4 to 7, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{Percent Increase} = \left( \frac{\text{New Value} - \text{Old Value}}{\text{Old Value}} \right) \times 100 \]

Plugging in the values:

  • Old Value = 4
  • New Value = 7

Now, calculate:

\[ \text{Percent Increase} = \left( \frac{7 - 4}{4} \right) \times 100 \] \[ = \left( \frac{3}{4} \right) \times 100 \] \[ = 0.75 \times 100 \] \[ = 75% \]

Thus, the percent of increase from 4 to 7 is 75%.
