Answer:

decrease = 26.04

increase = 29.96

Explanation:

Decrease of £28.00 by 7% = £28 -(7% of 28)

= £28 - (0.07 × 28)

= £28 - 1.96

= £26.04

Increase of £28 by 7% = £28 +(7% of 28)

= £28 +(0.7 × 28)

= $28 + 1.96

= £29.96

Decrease £28 by 7% would be £26.04

and increase £28 by 7% would be £29.96
