Step-by-step explanation:
£480 = 120% (after adding the 20% VAT).
we want to know how much 100% is.
he do we get from 120% to 100% ?
first the formal long way
£480 = 120%
1% = 120%/120 = 480/120 = £4
100% = 1% × 100 = 4×100 = £400
once you understand this mechanism, you can apply the direct shortcut :
£480 / 1.2 = £400
as a multiplication with 100/120 is the same as a division by 120/100, which is 1.2.
and what we did at the beginning in long form was nothing else than
£480 × 100/120 = 480 × 10/12 = 480 × 5/6 = £400
That would be 4/6, or 2/3 simplified. As a percent, that would be 66%.

Answer:
(m+2)(m-2)=m^2-4
Step-by-step explanation:
(m+2)(m-2)=m(m-2)+2(m-2)
=m^2-2m+2m-4
=m^2-4
Remove the parentheses and combine the like terms:
7 - -9 = 7+ 9 = 16
6i - -8i = 6i +8i = 14i
The answer is 16 + 14i
