<h3>Answer: Net Increase of 26%</h3>
===================================================
Explanation:
If it increases by 5%, then we use the multiplier 1.05
Think of it like saying 100% + 5% = 1 + 0.05 = 1.05
Similarly, an increase of 20% means we involve 1.20
Combine those multipliers to get: 1.05*1.20 = 1.26
This is a net increase of 26%
Interestingly, we get fairly close to 25% which is what many students might go for (since 5 + 20 = 25). This is a beginner's trap.
----------------
An example:
Let's say the temperature is 20 degrees Celsius (68 degrees Fahrenheit)
An increase of 5% means it moves to 1.05*20 = 21 degrees C
A 20% increase means we go to 1.20*21 = 25.2 degrees C
The shortcut would be to do a 26% increase to get 1.26*20 = 25.2 to help confirm we have the correct combined increase.
Answer:
$125
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are 12 months in a year, divide the total bill by the total number of months.
1500/12 = $125
Answer:
-$200
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Net earning per bouquet for the month= - $2.50
On a particular day of the month, 20 bouquet was sold ;
Net earning for the day:
Net earning per bouquet * number of bouquet
-$2.50 * 80
= $200
Hence, net earning for Tuesday = - $200
