My rent was 800.00 a month. My landlord raised my rent to 1,240.00. What percentage did he raise my rent?.

First, calculate the difference between the old and new rent:
Difference = 1,240 - 800 = 440
Percentage increase = 440/800

Type 440/800 into the search engine, and choose the percent option
You get 55% increase.
