Find the percentage change

from 126.37 to 188.94

Eliminate the options that

say there has been adecrease

Eliminate the options thatsay there has been an

increase of 100% or more.

The answer will be around

50%, so select the option +

5% of this.

Most of the times, there will

be only one option in this

range.
