Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression 1.25 d means 100% of the price +25% of the price. This means it increased by 25%. Multiplying it by 0.8 means it's value is only 80% of the value now which means it must of had a 20% decrease after increasing. It's now at it's original price.

a number multiplied by a fraction is not always smaller than the original number explain this and give at least two examples to
MariettaO [177]
Sometimes, fractions can be written in 'improper' form, meaning that the top number (numerator) is bigger than the bottom number (denominator). So anything multiplied by a fraction like this will give a bigger number.

For example:
5 × 2/1 = 10
10 x 10/1 = 100
