An ice cream shop had 316 customers the first weekend it opened. The second weekend it had 468. What is the percent of increase in the number of customers? Round to the nearest percent

The percent of the increase in the number of customers is 48% and this can be determined by using the unitary method.

Given :

The unitary method can be used to determine the percent of the increase in the number of customers.

The following steps can be used to determine the percent of the increase in the number of customers:

Step 1 - Given that an ice cream shop had 316 customers the first weekend it opened. So, let this amount be 100%.

Step 2 - So, if the 316 customers are 100% then 468 customers are:

Multiply 468 and 100 in the above expression.

Divide 46800 by 316 in the above expression.

= 148.1012

148

Step 3 - The percent of the increase in the number of customers is:

= 148 - 100

= 48%

So, the percent of the increase in the number of customers is 48%.

48%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage change in any value is given by

percentage change = (final value - initial value)/initial  value * 100 %

given

number of customers in first weekend = 316

number of customers in second weekend = 468

increase in the number of customers = (468-316)/316 * 100 %

increase in the number of customers = 152/316*100% = 48.10%

Rounding the percent increase to nearest percent = 48%
