What single decimal multiplier would you use to decrease by 12% followed by a 4% increase

The single decimal multiplier is 0.9152

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write a single decimal number that would work as to decrease an original value by 12% and increase it also by 4%

Let the original value be x

12% = 12/100 = 0.12

So decreasing by 12% would be x-0.12x = 0.88x

Now this 0.88x, we shall increase it by 4%

4% is same as 0.04

Thus by increasing , we have;

0.88x + 0.04(0.88x)

= 0.88x + 0.0352x = 0.9152x

So the single factor we are multiplying by is 0.9152

b. 1.25 hr

step-by-step explanation:

if you have a constant speed of 60 mph, then you have a ratio between 60 mi. to 1 hr. dividing both sides by 60 we get the ratio

1 mi. to

then mult. both sides by 75 we get the ratio

75 mi. to

simplifying we get

75 mi. to

or 1.25 hr.
