Answer: A. divided the difference of the two quantities by the sum of the two quantities.
===================================================
Explanation:
The difference of the quantities is 20-15 = 5
The sum of the quantities is 20+15 = 35
Dividing those results leads to 5/35 = 0.142857 which rounds to 0.1429
That converts to 14.29%
This is likely the path Adam took. This path is incorrect. The correct steps are shown below
---------------------
Difference = 20-15 = 5
Divide the difference over the original quantity
5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
We have a 25% decrease because the new quantity (15) is smaller than the old quantity (20)
----------------------
Here's another way to approach the problem
A = old value = 20
B = new value = 15
C = percent change
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%
C = [ (15-20)/20 ] * 100%
C = (-5/20)*100%
C = -0.25*100%
C = -25%
The negative C value means we have a negative percent change, ie we have a percent decrease. So this is another way to get a 25% decrease.

Use the multiplier 1.055
final = original x multiplier^n
where 'n' is the number of years
Sub the values in
final = 700 x 1.055^7
final = 1018.27
Subtract the values:
1018.27 - 700 = 318.27
Thus, he earns more than $275
He earns $43.27 more

Because there are only two things you can do with these two " family" members. 81 divided by 9 is 9. 9 times 9 is 81. Strictly speaking, there should be three in the family: 9,9 and 81 9 is the square root of 81. 81 is the 9 squared.
