Answer:

  1. increase
  2. decrease
  3. increase

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A sales tax is ALWAYS an increase. That's why governments use sales taxes.
  • A discount is ALWAYS a decrease. That's it's definition. You are being given a break.
  • A tip is meant to supplement the pay someone gets. It's an increase from your point of view.

What is 48/100 reduced
garri49 [273]
Simplify: \frac{48}{100}
Both the numerator and the denominator are divisable by 2.
So:
\frac{48~ divided ~by~ 2}{100 ~divided~ by~ 2}  ≈ \frac{24}{50}

Still this fraction can be reduced lower, so divide by two again.

\frac{24 ~divided~ by ~2}{50 ~divided~ by~ 2} ≈ \frac{12}{25}

Now, your final answer that is reduced (simplified) down to its lowest terms would be:

\frac{12}{25}
