Speed was increased 20% to 48 mph. What was the speed before the increase

Mathematics

1 answer:

8 0

Answer:

40 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

If the speed increased by 20%, now the speed is 120% of the original speed.

48 mph is 120%, so dividing by 6 will get 8 which is 20%.

If 8 is 20%, you can multiply it by 5 to get 40, which is 100%. This means 40 mph is the original speed.

Hope this helps!
