Total approximately 455000 computer programmers are employed in a certain country. By next decade, this number is expected to increase to 484000 computer programmers. What is the percent increase

Answer:6.37%

Step-by-step explanation:

Currently, the total number of computer programmers employed in a certain country is approximately

455000

By next decade, this number is expected to increase to 484000

To determine the increase in the number of computer programmers in a decade, we will subtract the current number of computer programmers from the expected number of computer programmers in the next decade. It becomes

484000 - 455000 = 29000

To determine the percent increase, we will divide the increase in computer programmers by the number of computer programmers currently and multiply by 100. It becomes

29000/455000 * 100

= 6.37%
