Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent increase formula is

[tex]%increase=\frac{new-original}{original}*100%[/tex]

For the bread, our percent increase looks like this:

[tex]\frac{25-15}{15}*100[/tex]

which gives us a percent increase of 66.7%

For the cakes, our percent increase looks like this:

[tex]\frac{12-10}{10}*100[/tex]

which gives us a percent increase of 20%
