Answer:
40%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = numerator
Let y = denominator

Decreased by 30% = 100% - 30% = 70% = 70/100 = 0.7
Decreased by 50% = 100% - 50% = 50% = 50/100 = 0.5



1.4 as a percentage = 1.4 x 100 = 140%
Therefore, the percentage increase is 140 - 100 = 40%
Answer:
So since the scale is 12 inches:5 feet, we have to divide 412 inches by 12 inches because 412 inches is the total length drawn on the scale drawing.
412/12 = 34.3
Then since each 12 inches equals 5 feet and we have 34.3 12x inches. We are just going to multiply 34.3 by 5.
34.3*5 = 171 and 2/3 feet is your actual length of the bus
