The percentage increase is given by :

 

[New value - Old Value] / Old Value  .....   expressed as a percent....    so we have

 

[27 - 15] / 15   =

 

12/15    =

 

.80     = 80% increase

 

 

cool cool cool

Just divide 27/15=1.80, then just subtract 1 and multiply by 100,

So, 1.80 - 1=.80 X 100=80%. And that the percentage increase. Good luck.
