The approximate price of gas today would be:
$3.29 + ($3.29 x 0.17) = $3.29 + $0.56 = $3.85.
So, the approximate price of gas today is $3.85.
Jacob noticed that there was a 17 percent increase in the gas prices from the day
before. If the gas price the day before was $3.29, what is the approximate price of
gas today?
