To calculate the percentage increase in the price of the soft drink, you can use the following formula:
Percentage Change = ((New Price - Old Price) / Old Price) * 100
In this case:
Old Price = R6.15
New Price = R6.35
Percentage Change = ((6.35 - 6.15) / 6.15) * 100
Percentage Change = (0.2 / 6.15) * 100
Percentage Change = 0.0325 * 100
Percentage Change = 3.25%
