Answer:
The percentage increase is 12.5%.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Original number of students = 32
New number of students = 36
We will calculate the increase using;
[tex] Increase = original \; number - new \; number [/tex]
Substituting the values, we have;
Increase = 36 - 32 = 4
[tex] Percentage \; increase = \frac{increase}{original \; number} * 100[/tex]
[tex] Percentage \; increase = \frac{4}{32} * 100[/tex]
[tex] Percentage \; increase = 0.125 * 100[/tex]
Percentage increase = 12.5%
Therefore, the number of students in a school club increased by 12.5%.
