After flooding damaged much of the crop, the cost of a head of lettuce jumped from $0.92 to $2.26. What percent of increase is this? Round to the nearest one percent.

146%

Step-by-step explanation:

If the percent change is positive, it is a percent increase.

If the percent change is negative, it is a percent decrease.

Your numbers are

old price = $0.92

new price = $2.26

Plug in the numbers in the formula above and evaluate the expression.

percent change = ($2.26 - $0.92)/($0.92) * 100%

percent change = ($1.34)/($0.92) * 100%

percent change = 1.4565 * 100%

percent change = 146%

Since the percent change is a positive number, it is a percent increase.

The percent increase is 146%.
