Answer:
a = 25 , b = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
For A
a/5 + 3 = 8
a/5 = 8 - 3
a/5 = 5
Cross multiply
a = 5 * 5
a = 25
For B
3b/7 - 1 = 5
3b/7 = 5 + 1
3b/7 = 6
Cross multiply
3b = 42
b = 42 / 3
b = 14

To reverse a percentage decrease you divide it by the decrease (+ 100%)
For example we will pick the number, 100, which is decreased by 15% to 85.
To make 85 back to 100 we divide it by the decrease (1-0.15):
85 / 0.85 = 100
To find out how much 85 increased to get back to 100, we do:
15 / 85 = 0.1765 = %17.65
15 is the reduction/difference, and 85 is the with reduction total.
Because percentages stay the same, this is applicable to any numbers, from this, we know that whenever something is reduced by 15% - when restored to it's original is increased by %17.65
The answer is %17.65
