Answer 2

Hi friends

Here is your answer

Let the number is 100

Now it is increase by 20%
$= \frac{20}{100} \times 100 \\ = 20$
Number is 100+20 = 120

Now it is decrease by 20%
$= \frac{20}{100} \times 120 \\ = 24$
Number is 120 - 24 = 96

Difference is 100 - 96 = 4

Net Decease% is
$= \frac{4}{100} \times 100 \\ \\ = 4\%$
Hope it helps you
