Question

if 100 is increased by 40% age and then decreased by 40 percentage then the resulting number is

Answer 1

✴Hey mate!!✴

40% of 100 is 40.

100 is increased by 40%.

Thus, the result will be = 100 + 40 = 140

Now, the result of the previous calculation is decreased by 40%.

The decrease (x) can be calculated as below :-
Percentage = (Decrease/Total) × 100

Thus, 40 = (x/140) × 100

Thus, x = (40 × 140) /100

Thus, x = 56

Thus, 56 is decreased from 140.
Hence, the resultant number will be (140 - 56) = 84

✴Thanks for the question✴
