199 textbooks. 100x.99=99 add 99 to 100 and the sum is equivalent to 199

Answer 2

100 textbooks increased by 99% is, 199

Explanation:

As per the statement:

100 textbooks increased by 99%

To find the number of increased textbook.

Original number of textbook = 100

Increase percentage = 99%

then;

`\text{increase textbook} = 100 * (99)/(100)`

Simplify:

`\text{Increase textbook} = 99`

then;

`\text{Number of textbook increased} = 100 + 99 = 199`

therefore, 100 textbooks increased by 99% is, 199
