Answer: 100% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

You need the find the cost per bag in those weeks.

Three weeks ago, she could buy a bag for N5,700.

Three weeks after that, she could only buy half a bag for the same amount. A bag therefore costs:

= 5,700 ÷ 2/4

= N11,400

The percentage increase is:

= (11,400 - 5,700) / 5,700

= 100%
