• A. 40%
• B. 25%
• C. 20%
• D. 12%
  % Correct answer

Hint:

To find percentage increase, always use the formula: \( \frac{\text{Increase}}{\text{Original}} \times 100 \)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Temporary workers on April 1 = 400
Temporary workers on May 1 = 560
Increase = \(560 - 400 = 160\)
Percentage increase = \(\frac{160}{400} \times 100 = 40%\) \[ {40%} \]
