Question

My photo is 8". If I want to reduce it by 12% five times. What is the size of my photo?

Answer 1

To reduce a number by 12% we can simply multiply it by 0.88. If we repeat this 5 times we get 8, 7.04, 6.1952, 5.451776, 4.79756288, 4.2218553344.

We end up with 4.2218553344.

I think this is right.
