The Massachusetts Department of Employment and Training predicted that there will be 21% more jobs for computer programmers in Massachusetts in 2005 than there were in 1994.

There were 15,970 programming jobs in 1994.

Based on the prediction, about how many total jobs were there available in 2005?

19,324

Step-by-step explanation:

The original amount is 100% of the original amount since 100% means a whole amount.

A 21% increase means that the new amount will be 100% + 21% = 121% of the original amount.

Now we calculate 121% of 15,970.

To find a percent of a number, multiply the percent by the number. First, divide the percent by 100 to change it into a decimal.

121% of 15,970 =

= 121% * 15,970

= 1.21 * 15,970

= 19,323.7
