Answer:

61% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

Product of two numbers = x * y = xy

(x + 15%) * (y + 40%)

Due to the fact that x and y are variables, we can add the percents to them

1.15x * 1.4y

Multiply

1.61xy

Calculate percent increase

1.61xy (new amount) - xy (original amount)

------------------------------------------------------------      * 100

                   xy (original amount)

Simplify

.61xy

---------  * 100      =     61%

  xy

61% increase

3/6 - 2/6

subtract the numerators

take 2 from 3 and put that on top.

frez [133]
12% of 1200 is 144, so subtract that. you get 1056. 12% of that is 126.72, so you subtract that. you get 929.28. 12% of that is 111.5136 and you subtract that. and so on and so forth. the answer would be 557.
