Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Think about it like this: $24 multiplied by how much equals $30?

This in equation form would be [tex]24x=30[/tex]

To solve for x, divide both sides by 24: [tex]x=30/24[/tex] or [tex]x=5/4[/tex]

5/4 in percentage form would be 125%, so the dues increased by 25%
