Answer:

Percentage increase = 20 %

Step-by-step explanation:

1) work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

2) divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.

Increase = New Number - Original Number

increase = 11.10 - 9.25

increase = 1.85

Percentage increase = (Increase / Original Number) × 100

Percentage increase = (1.85 / 9.25 ) x 100

Percentage increase = 1/5 x 100

Percentage increase = 20%

So, the Percentage increase is 20%
