i think its 11.3%

BTW your wrong already because looking at the figures their is only an increse of 10000 not 10500.
So an increse of 10000 is 11.3% I think.:confused:

house bought for 75,000 then sold for 85,000

from this value rose 10,000.

then value was raised 10,500

total value rose 20,500

20,500/75,000 = 0.27333

27.33%

if read like this, then this is the answer.

house value rose from original value 75,000 by 27.33%
:crazyboy:

LIVE LONG AND PROSPER!
