Respuesta :

Answer:

The percent of change is 44.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

38 staples to 55 staples

As the number of staples are increased, therefore, the percent will also increase.

Difference = 55 - 38 = 17 staples

Percent of change = [tex]\frac{Difference}{Original\ number}*100[/tex]

Percent of change = [tex]\frac{17}{38}*100[/tex]

Percent of change = 0.447*100

Percent of change = 44.7%

Hence,

The percent of change is 44.7%
