Solution :
The number of Mathematics seeking applicants in 2009 = 2230
The number of Mathematics seeking applicants in 2008 = 1870
Difference = 2230 – 1870 = 360
Percentage increased = $\frac{\text{Difference}}{\text{Applicants in 2008}}\times100$
= $\frac{360}{1870}\times100$
= 19.25%
Hence, the correct answer is 19.25%.
