O The numerator should be 18, which is the original amount.
16
O The numerator should be 26, which is the new amount.
O The denominator should be 18, which is the new amount.
O The expression was simplified incorrectly.
Correct the error. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
The percent increase from 18 to 26 is about 1%

The denominator should be 18, which is the original amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are to calculate the percentage increase from 18 to 26

Mathematically, we can calculate this with the following formula;

(New value - old value)/old value * 100%

Where the new value is 26 and the old value is 18. Plugging these values, we have;

(26-18)/18 * 100%

8/18 * 100% = 44.44% increase

aloha~! my name is zalgo and i am here to you out on this gracious day. in order to compare the ratios easily, it is best that we simplify the question first. so, the cougars would have 6 wins for 5 losses, bobcats make 2 wins for 1 loss. bulldogs and tigers have a ratio where you can't simplify it. so, the team with the lowest rate would be the bobcats.

i hope that this ! : d
