Practice Question

A new physician saw 841 clients during the first year of practice and 1,072 clients during the second year of practice. Which of the following represents the approximate percentage increase in client volume?

Answer Choices:

Correct Answer:

27%

Rationale:

💁‍♂️Increase = 1072 − 841 = 231.

👉Percent increase = (231 ÷ 841) × 100 ≈ 27.47%, rounds to 27%.

🤷‍♂️This is a common formula: (New − Old) ÷ Old × 100.

🤝Other options reflect misapplication of percent formulas.


📌Core Message

Use the percent change formula: (New − Old) ÷ Old × 100.
