4. Ronnie increased the amount of money in his piggy bank by 25%. Which expression can be used to find the amount of money in his bank? Let "m" represent the original.
Step-by-step explanation:
let original price = p
a) p+ 0.3p = p + 30% of p
30% more than original price
b) 0.7p = 70% of p
= 70% of the original price
c) 17p = 17 × p
= 17times of the original price
d) p-0.7p = p - 70% of p
= 70% less than original price
Let original time = t
e) 85% more than the original time = t + 85%of t
= t + 0.85t
f) 15% less time than the original time = t - 15% of t
= t - 0.15t
g) 85% time decrease = t - 85% of t
= t - 0.85t
h) 15% time increase = t + 15% of t
= t + 0.15t
4. Since "m" represent the original amount in Hus piggy bank
An increase of 25% = original amount + 25% of original amount
= m + 25% of m
'Of' means multiplication
= m + 0.25 ×m
= m + 0.25m
= 1.25m
The expression that can be used to find the amount of money in his bank = m + 0.25m
