The required ratio is change divided by original, so the starting forty-eight-dollar price must be the denominator. We’ll subtract to find the dollar increase, write that change over forty-eight, simplify and convert the ratio to a percent, then attach the increase label. Applying the growth factor to the original price checks the equation.
