Answer:
Search this up on google to find out what the answer is because no one is going to know how to do it.
First, lets convert them into multipliers:
The multiplier for a:
25% increase = 1.25
40% decrease = 0.6
40% increase = 1.4
Now to work out the overall percentage change, we just times all of the multipliers together, and convert it back to a percentage:
1.25 x 0.6 x 1.4 = 1.05
So the overall multiplier is 1.05
And a multiplier of 1.05 = a <u>5% increase</u>.
That means that the percentage change is + 5%

Note: if you haven't been taught multipliers - then ask and I'll try my best to explain!
|12| ÷ 2 • |-5|
= 12 ÷ 2 • 5
= 6 • 5
= 30
Absolute values just make the number positive if it is negative. The number stays positive if it’s positive.
You draw a number line do +100 on the line then do +100 +100 +50 +8 then you add them up
