Let the number be 100.
if it is decreased by 20%, new number will be
100 + 20% of 100 = 100 + 20 = 120
how much % should 120 be decreased to get 100
we need to decrease = 120-100 = 20
% = 20/120 * 100 = 16.67%
if it is decreased by 20%, new number will be
100 + 20% of 100 = 100 + 20 = 120
how much % should 120 be decreased to get 100
we need to decrease = 120-100 = 20
% = 20/120 * 100 = 16.67%
