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%

The simplified form of the expression is given as 83x/56 -(97/105)
<h3>Finding the value of unknown variables</h3>
Alphabets are usually represented as unknown variables in a equation or expression.
Given the following expression shown below
6/7 x -2/3 + 3/5 + 5/8 x -6/7
Collect the like terms to have;
6/7 x+ 5/8 x -2/3 + 3/5 -6/7
Simplify
48x+35x/56 - (70-63 + 90)/105
The final expression will be given as;
83x/56 -(97/105)
Hence the simplified form of the expression is given as 83x/56 -(97/105)
