Answer 2

Answer:

The house's value increased by $24,120. The current value of the house is $292,120

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, we need to multiply the percentage (9%) by the previous value of $268,000. In order to do that, we need to turn the percentage into a decimal. So, 9% → .09

268,000 x .09 = 24,120

Now you can add this number to the previous house value to get your current house value. (Your house increase in value by 24,120)

24,120 + 268,000 = 292,120
