Question

Which number is greater and by how much? 600 or 600 decreased by 20% and then uncreased by 20% of the result

Answer 1

600 is greater by 24

Explanation:

We will decrease 600 by 20%.

20% of 600 = 120

600 - 20% of 600 = 480

We will now increase 480 by 20%

20% of 480 = 96

480 + 20% of 480 = 576

Is 576 more than 600?

No.

And how much more is 600 than 576?

24, because 600 - 576 = 24.
