8 meters increased by 28 percent

8 Meters Increased By 28 Percent class=

Sagot :

What is 8 meters increased by 28%?

Well, first, you need to convert 28% to a decimal by moving the decimal two to the left by dividing by 100 

28÷100=.28
or
28%⇒28⇒.28

Then you multiply

8 meters times .28

[tex]8m*.28=2.24[/tex]

Then you add 2.24 to 8m (since its the original number)

[tex]2.24m+8m=10.24m[/tex]

Your answer is 10.24m
(8 x 28) divided by 100 is 2.24. 2.24 + 8 = 10.24 meters
