Correct Answer: 66.66%


Solution : Raw materials in 2015 = 330
Raw materials in 2019 = 550
Percentage increase
$=\frac{\text{Raw materials in 2019 – Raw materials in 2015}}{\text{Raw materials in 2015}}\times100$
$=\frac{550-330}{330}\times100$
$=\frac{220}{330}\times100=66.66\%$
Hence, the correct answer is 66.66%.
