Percent increase from 2000 to 2001 is 12% and from 2001 to 2002 is 12.6%. Thus period of 2001 to 2002 has higher increase percentage.
Solution:
Given that,
Total circulation of local newspaper in 2000 = 3250
Total circulation of local newspaper in 2001 = 3640
Total circulation of local newspaper in 2002 = 4100
As we can see 12% < 12.6%
So period of 2001 to 2002 has higher increase percentage.
Answer:
2000 - 2001: 3640 - 3250 = 390
2001 - 2002: 4100 - 3640 = 460
390 divided by 3250 = 0.12
460 divided by 3640 = 0.1263736 = 1.26
