Always, always,always...........let the original quantity represent 100%



43376 represents 100%



61686 represents 100 x 61686/43376 %



the answer is going to be 140 something percent



The percentage increase is this 140something minus 100%



The percentage increase is going to be 40something per cent



Good luck with the working out - you don't need me to do that!
Reply:14.2% increase approximately.
Reply:61686 - 43376 = 18310 (unit or dollar increase in sales)



18310 / 43376 * 100 = 42.2% increase
