Solution

Solution Steps

To find the amount of increase when $600 is increased by 9%, we need to calculate 9% of 600. This can be done by multiplying 600 by 0.09.

Step 1: Calculate the Amount of Increase

To find the amount of increase when \$600 is increased by 9%, we calculate: \[ \text{Amount of Increase} = 600 \times 0.09 = 54.0 \]

Step 2: Determine the New Amount

Next, we find the new amount after the increase by adding the amount of increase to the original amount: \[ \text{New Amount} = 600 + 54.0 = 654.0 \]

Final Answer

The amount of increase is $\boxed{54.0}$ and the new amount is $\boxed{654.0}$.
