Question

For each pair of numbers, tell: By what percent of the first number is the second number larger? By what percent of the second number is the first number smaller? 100 and 110

Answer 1

The percent by which the second number is larger than the first number is 9.09%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find by what percent the second number is larger than the first number, we can use the formula:

(Second Number - First Number) / First Number) * 100%

For the given pair of numbers, 100 and 110:

(110 - 100) / 100 * 100% = 10%

To find by what percent the first number is smaller than the second number, we can use the formula:

(First Number - Second Number) / Second Number) * 100%

For the given pair of numbers, 100 and 110:

(100 - 110) / 110 * 100% = -9.09%
