Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the percentage increase, we need to first find the difference between the two prices:

$29,975 - $24,400 = $5,575

Then, we divide the difference by the original price (Fusion SES):

$5,575 ÷ $24,400 = 0.228

Finally, we convert the decimal to a percentage:

0.228 x 100% = 22.8%

Therefore, the answer is C.
