<h3>Answer:  0.9999</h3>

Explanation:

Having a 1% increase means we go from 100% to 100%+1% = 101% which converts to the decimal form 1.01; note how you move the decimal point two spots to the left to go from 101% to 1.01

A 1% decrease means we go from 100% to 100%-1% = 99% = 0.99

Multiplying 1.01 and 0.99 leads to 1.01*0.99 = 0.9999

Since 0.9999 = 99.99%, this means we have a 100% - 99.99% = 0.01% decrease overall.

Note: the order of the decrease and increase doesn't matter. You could do the decrease first, then the increase, or vice versa.

5. Using only odd numbers for numerators,
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

  • 3/4 - 1/4 = 1/2
  • 5/8 - 1/8 = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

You can pick just about any fraction with an odd numerator and find another at distance 1/2 from it.

For example, 5/7 - 1/2 = 10/14 - 7/14 = 3/14. So your subtraction problem can be ...

  5/7 - 3/14 = 1/2

Choosing a denominator divisible by 4 can make both parts of the problem use the same denominator.

  3/4 - 2/4 = 1/4, so the corresponding subtraction problem is 3/4 - 1/4 = 1/2.

  5/8 - 4/8 = 1/8, so the subtraction problem is 5/8 -1/8 = 1/2.
