What is Percentage?
A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction \(\bold{\dfrac{1}{4}}\) can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.
To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.
Given to us
- Janet produces 23 dolls per month
- Janet increased her production by 18%
Janet production after 18% increment in production
Janet increased her production by 18%, therefore,
\(18\%\ of\ 23\\\\= \dfrac{18}{100}\times 23\\\\= 4.14 \approx 4\)
thus, Janet will make 4 more dolls if she increases her production by 18%.
Total production of Janet
Total production of Janet
= Production before + production after 18% increment in production
= 23 + 4
= 27
Hence, the total number of dolls made by Janet after an 18% increment in production will be 27.
