    On March 8, 2010, Cento Coffee Shop began charging $2.50 for its drip coffee. Prior to that date, the shop charged $2.25 for its drip coffee. What was the percent increase in the drip coffee’s cost on March 8, 2010?
    ::2010年3月8日,Cento咖啡店开始收取2.50美元的滴咖啡费。 在此之前,该店收取2.25美元的滴咖啡费。 2010年3月8日,滴咖啡成本增长了多少? 2010年3月8日,滴咖啡成本增长了多少?

    In this concept, you will learn how to find the percent of increase.
    ::在这个概念中,你会学会 如何找到增长的百分率。

    Finding Percent of Increase
    ::查找增加百分比

    Sometimes, you will have a price that has been increased by a specific  amount . Other times you can observe that a price has increased over time. Past pricing is often thought of in this way. When you compare a past price and an increased current price, you can figure out the percent by which a price has increased. You call this percent the  percent of increase.
    ::有时,你将会看到一个价格已经以特定数量上涨。有时,你可以观察到一个价格随着时间推移而上涨。过去的价格常常被这样看待。比较过去的价格和不断上涨的当期价格,你可以找出价格上涨的百分率。你把这个百分比称为增长的百分率。

    The  percent of increase  from one amount to another is the ratio of the amount of increase to the original amount.
    ::从一个数额到另一个数额增加的百分比是增加数额与原数额的比率。

    To find the percent of increase, follow these steps.
    ::为了找到增长的百分率, 遵循这些步骤 。

    First, find the amount of increase by subtracting the original price from the new price.
    ::首先,通过从新价格中减去原价来找到增加额。

    Next, write a fraction in which the  numerator  is the amount of increase and the  denominator  is the original amount.
    ::下一步,写一个分数,其中分子是增加的量,分母是原始的量。

    Percent of increase = Amount of Increase Original Amount

    Then, write the fraction as a percent.
    ::然后,将分数写成百分比。

    Now let’s apply these steps.
    ::现在让我们运用这些步骤。

    Find the percent of increase from 20 to 35.
    ::发现从20%增加到35 %的增幅。

    First, subtract 20 from 35.
    ::首先,在35中减去20。

    35 20 = 15

    Next, write the fraction:  Percent of increase = Amount of Increase Original Amount = 15 20
    ::下一步,写下分数:增加的百分比 = 增加数额 = 原数额 = 15 20

    Then:
    ::然后:

    One Way
    ::单行

    15 20 = x 100 20 x = 1 , 500 20 x 20 = 1 , 500 20 x = 75
    Another Way

    15 20 = 15 ÷ 5 20 ÷ 5 = 3 4 4 ) 3.00 ¯     0.75 Divide to   2   decimal places. 0.75 = 75 %

    The answer is the percent of increase from 20 to 35 is 75%.
    ::答案是,从20%到35的增幅是75%。

    Notice that you could solve for the percent in two different ways. One was to use a  proportion  and the other was to simply  divide . Either way, you will get the same answer.
    ::注意您可以用两种不同的方式解答百分比。 一种是使用比例,另一种是简单地分割。 无论哪种方式, 您都会得到相同的答案 。

    Examples
    ::实例

    Example 1
    ::例1

    Earlier, you were given a problem about Cento Coffee House.
    ::早些时候,有人给了你一个问题 关于半人马咖啡馆。

    On March 8, 2010, the price of a drip coffee went from $2.25 to $2.50. What was the percent increase in the drip coffee’s cost?
    ::2010年3月8日,滴咖啡的价格从2.25美元上升到2.50美元。 滴咖啡成本增长多少?

    First, figure out the amount of the increase by subtracting.
    ::首先,从中减去增加的数额。

    2.50 2.25 = 0.25

    Next, divide this number by the original amount.
    ::接下来,将这个数字除以原来的数额。

    0.25 ÷ 2.25 = 0.11

    Finally, convert the decimal to a percent.
    ::最后,将小数点转换为百分之一。

    0.11 = 11 %

    The answer is the price of the drip coffee increased by 11%.
    ::答案是滴咖啡的价格上涨11%。

    Example 2
    ::例2

    Let’s look at another example.
    ::让我们再看看另一个例子。

    Find the percent of increase from 24 to 72.
    ::发现从24岁增加到72岁的百分比。

    First, subtract 24 from 72.
    ::首先,从72中减去24。

    72 24 = 48

    Next, write the fraction:  Percent of increase = Amount of Increase Original Amount = 48 24
    ::下一步,写下分数:增加的百分比 = 增加数额 = 原数额 = 48 24

    Then:
    ::然后:

    One Way
    ::单行

    48 24 = x 100 24 x = 4 , 800 24 x 24 = 4 , 800 24 x = 200

    Another Way
    ::另一种方式

    48 24 = 48 ÷ 24 24 ÷ 24 = 2 1 2 = 200 %

    The answer is the percent increase from 24 to 72 is 200%.
    ::答案是,24%到72 %的增幅是200%。

    Yes, sometimes the percent of increase can be greater than 100%!
    ::是的,有时增长的百分率会超过100%!

    Example 3
    ::例3

    Find the percent of increase from 45 to 50. You may  round  to the nearest whole percent when needed.
    ::发现45%到50的增长率的百分比, 必要时您可以圆到最接近的百分率。

    First, subtract 45 from 50.
    ::首先,50减45。

    50 45 = 5

    Next, write the fraction:  Percent of increase = Amount of Increase Original Amount = 5 45  
    ::下一步,写下分数:增加的百分比 = 增加数额 = 原数额 = 5 45

    Then solve the proportion:
    ::然后解析比例 :

    5 45 = x 100 45 x = 500 x = 11.11

    The answer is rounded to the nearest whole percent, the percent increase from 45 to 50 is 11%.
    ::答案四舍五入到最接近的百分率,45%到50的增幅为11%。

    Example 4
    ::例4

    Find the percent of increase from $1.00 to $1.75. You may round to the nearest whole percent when needed.
    ::找到从1.00美元到1.75美元增长的百分之一。 需要时,您可以圆到最近的整百分数。

    First, subtract 1.00 from 1.75.
    ::首先,从1.75中减去1.00。

    1.75 1.00 = 0.75

    Next, write the fraction:  Percent of increase = Amount of Increase Original Amount = 0.75 1.00
    ::下一步,写入分数:增加的百分比 = 增加额 = 增加额 原数额 = 0.75 1.00

    Then, divide:
    ::然后,分开:

    0.75 1.00 = 0.75 = 75 %

    The answer is the percent increase from $1.00 to $1.75 is 75%.
    ::答案是,从1.00美元增加到1.75美元的百分比增加75%。

    Example 5
    ::例5

    Find the percent of increase from 34 to 60. You may round to the nearest whole percent when needed.
    ::找到从34到60的增幅的百分比, 必要时您可以圆到最近的整百分率。

    First, subtract 34 from 60.
    ::首先,从60中减去34。

    60 34 = 26

    Next, write the fraction:  Percent of increase = Amount of Increase Original Amount = 26 34
    ::下一步,写下分数:增加的百分比 = 增加数额 = 原数额 = 26 34

    Then, solve the proportion: 
    ::然后,解决比例问题:

    26 34 = x 100 34 x = 2 , 600 x = 76.47
    The answer is rounded to the nearest whole percent, the percent increase from 34 to 60 is 76%.
