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
Answer:
-15
Step-by-step explanation:
-3+8-5. 5x3=15 and because it is -p it would be -15.
First multiply them out to improper fractions 1 3/5 changes into 8/5 and 1 2/5 changes into 7/5 multiply them out and you should get 2 6/25.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation
Let's say d = distance, r = speed and t = time
We know the distance formula is :
distance = speed x time
d = r multiplied by t
d = rt
If the speed is 15km/hr, the time would be 30 minutes shorter.
Since d = rt,
90 = 15t
t = 6,
This means the time taken for the bus to complete the journey at 15km/hr would be 6hrs.
Originally though, the journey takes 30 minutes longer.
So we can say t = 6.5 hrs , and we know d = 90
Now we use the distance formula:
d = rt, since we want to find the original speed, we want to find r.
Speed = distance/time
r = d/t
r = 90/6.5
r = 180/13
Therefore the original speed is 180/13 km/hr
