Question

6. Freddy gets an allowance of £50 each month.

His parents increase is by 35%. How much does
Freddy now receive for his allowance?

Answer 1

$67.5

Explanation:

New value =

50 + Percentage increase =

50 + (35% × 50) =

50 + 35% × 50 =

(1 + 35%) × 50 =

(100% + 35%) × 50 =

135% × 50 =

135 ÷ 100 × 50 =

135 × 50 ÷ 100 =

6,750 ÷ 100 =

67.5
