Given:

Import in 2016-17 = 1200

Import in 2015-16 = 738

Formula Used:

Percentage = \(\frac{Increament}{Previous}\times100\)

Calculations:

According to the formula,

⇒ Increment = 1200 - 738 = 462

⇒ Percentage = \(\frac{462}{738}\times100\) = 62.60%

⇒ Hence, The percentage increased is 62.60%
