Answer 1

We are asked to find the percentage difference. This can be seen below;

Explanation:

We will use the formula below;

$\text{Percentage difference = }\frac{New\text{ throws -old throws}}{\text{old throws}}\times100$

Therefore

$\begin{gathered} \text{Percentage difference = }\frac{273-150}{150}\times100 \\ =\frac{123}{150}\times100 \\ =82\text{\%} \end{gathered}$

Answer: 82%
