Question

I DONT WANT HOW TO DO IT JUST THE ANSWER THANKS

Order these amounts from smallest to largest original quantity.
After a 90% increase, there is 2280
After a 58% decrease, there is 588
After a 55% increase, there is 2015

Answer 1

1. After a 90% increase, there is 2,280
2. After a 55% increase, there is 2015
3. After a 58% decrease, there is 588

Explanation:

Assume the original figures are x.

After a 90% increase, there is 2,280:

x * (1 + 90%) = 2,280

1.9x = 2,280

x = 2,280 / 1.9

= 1,200

After a 58% decrease, there is 588:

x * (1 - 58%) = 588

0.42x = 588

x = 588/0.42

x = 1,400

After a 55% increase, there is 2,015:

x * (1 + 55%) = 2,015

1.55x = 2,015

x = 2,015/1.55

x= 1,300

Order:

1,200 ⇒ 1,300 ⇒ 1,400
