Final answer: 1% of 500 is 5. To increase 500 by 1%, add the 1% (5) to the 500, giving a final answer of 505. Explanation: To find 1% of 500, multiply 500 by 0.01 (the decimal equivalent of 1%). This gives you 500 * 0.01 = 5. So, 1% of 500 is 5. Next, to increase 500 by 1%, you should first find 1% of 500 (which we've already found to be 5). Then,, add this to the original number: 500 + 5 = 505. So, if you increase 500 by 1%, you get 505. Learn more about Percentage Calculations here: brainly.com/question/32197511 #SPJ2
