Answer:

the original number is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

1. let 1x be your starting number

2. therefore, 0.5 * 1x = 0.5x ( amount after you decreased it by 50%)

3. then increase: 0.5x * 1.5 = 0.75x (amount after you increased it by 50%)

4. 0.75x < 1x (this means that the original number is larger than the one you decreased and then increased)
