Solution:
Number of pedicures in Quarter 1 (Q1) = 320 pedicures
Number of pedicures in Quarter 2 (Q2) = 400 pedicures
The overall pedicure growth rate from Q1 to Q2 is calculated as,
Overall pedicure growth rate = [ Number of pedicures in Q2 Number of pedicures in Q1 Number of pedicures in Q1 ] × 100
Overall pedicure growth rate = [ ( 400 320 ) 320 ] × 100
Overall pedicure growth rate = 25%
