Jair Bray · Answer 1

Percentage increase in member from September to October = 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of members in September = 16

Number of members in October = 24

Increase in number of members from September to October = 24-16=8

Percentage increase from September to October = (Increase in number of members from September to October * 100) : Number of members in September

= (8 * 100) : 16=50%

Hence percentage increase in member from September to October = 50%
