Dom has enough tins of paint to cover a total surface of 280m.

1 answer:

3 0

So he has to paint 255 m from the 280 m of paint he has
First divide 255/280 to give you a decimal
You should get .9107
Since this is in decimal form (out of 1) you want to get percentage which is out of 100 you multiply by 100
So .9107 times 100
This gives you the percentage which is
91.07%
Now it says round to 1 decimal so it would be
91.1%

Suppose an amount increases by 100%, then decreases by 100%. Find the final amount. Would the situation change if the original i

Well to solve this, lets plug in some numbers. Lets assume that for now, the starting number is 2. If it increases by 100%, bringing it up to 4, then decreases 100%, it is brought down to zero. Now one thing to note is that any number decrease by 100% is automatically zero. Watch, we start with two, it is then increased by 150%, bringing it up to 5, then decreased by 100%, bringing it back down to zero. In conclusion, 100% cannot be specified as a value, but rather a relation. 100% represents the entire number, meaning that if you are decreasing a number by 100%, you are basically subtracting the number by itself!
