helllo
mrs. sue am i right???
Only 4 is correct.
thnk you so #5 is 135
Yes. # 5 is 135.
Yes, your calculations for finding the new amounts after the given increase or decrease percentages are correct. Let's go through them step by step to confirm:
#4) Increase 35 by 40%
To find the new amount after increasing 35 by 40%, you need to multiply 35 by 1.4 (since 40% is equivalent to 0.4 as a decimal). The calculation is:
35 * 1.4 = 49
Therefore, the new amount after increasing 35 by 40% is 49.
#5) Increase 125 by 8%
To find the new amount after increasing 125 by 8%, you need to multiply 125 by 0.08 (since 8% is equivalent to 0.08 as a decimal). The calculation is:
125 * 0.08 = 10
Therefore, the new amount after increasing 125 by 8% is 10.
#6) Decrease 8 by 75%
To find the new amount after decreasing 8 by 75%, you need to multiply 8 by 0.75 (since 75% is equivalent to 0.75 as a decimal). The calculation is:
8 * 0.75 = 6
Therefore, the new amount after decreasing 8 by 75% is 6.
#7) Decrease 135 by 22%
To find the new amount after decreasing 135 by 22%, you need to multiply 135 by 0.22 (since 22% is equivalent to 0.22 as a decimal). The calculation is:
135 * 0.22 = 29.7
Therefore, the new amount after decreasing 135 by 22% is 29.7.
Based on these calculations, the new amounts are as follows:
#4) The new amount is 49.
#5) The new amount is 10.
#6) The new amount is 6.
#7) The new amount is 29.7.
So, yes, your calculations are correct!
