I increase £200 by 70%. Then I increase the new amount by 10%. What percentage of the original amount do I have now?
100+70=170
200 times 1.70=340
increase by 10%
10% of 340 is 34
add that
340+34=374
374/200= what percent?
374/200=187/100=187%
answer is 187%
2001.7=340
3401.1=374
(374-200)/200
174/200=0.87
0.87*100=87
87%+100%=187%
Hope this helps :)
