Question

What do I plug into a calculator to find the value of 631 after a 18% increase?

a
631 x 1.18
b
631 x 0.18
c
631 x 1.018
d
631 x 0.19

Answer 1

Answer:

b.

Step-by-step explanation:

cause 18/100 is 0.18, I don't really know how to explain it, I just know that if the percentage is one digit then it will be 0.02 (2 is for example) and if it's two digits it will be 0.21

Answer 2

The answer is A and while puting in B would work the quickest route is A
The 1 = 100% (631) and the .18 = the 18% increase

If you were to do B you would have to add the 631 afterwards because you would just get the increase by its self.
