Algebra Difficulty 1.1 Junior Find the answer Canada

A math club had $24$ members
in its first year. In the second year, the membership increased by $50\%$ . How many members were there in the
second year?

Pick one

Solution

Since $50\%$ of $24$ is $12$ , the membership increased by $12$ members. Thus in the second year,
there were $24+12=36$ members.
