उत्तर

Given, sugar in sweet corn soup = 5g and sugar in tomato soup = 11g

We need to find out the increase percentage

⇒ Now, we know increase = New number – Original number

⇒ If cream of tomato soup is chosen over sweet corn soup,

The increase in sugar consumed = 11g – 5g = 6g

⇒ Now, we know increase% = `"New number"/"Original number" xx 100`

⇒ Increase % = `6/5 xx 100`

= `600/5`

= 120%

Hence, the increase percentage is 120.
