and if it is a percentage of decrease, we will subtract: 80 - 20 = 60, so we will obtain that 80 decreased by 25% is 60. knowing this, we should point out that there is a shortcut to do these operations, which may help us (a lot!) to speed up our calculations. we can use the reference to the unit (1) instead of the traditional 100%, so, to increase a number by 25%, we add: 1 + 0.25 = 1.25 (mentally, so we save time) and then we apply it to our initial amount: 80 * 1.25 = 100 getting the same result above mentioned but in only one arithmetical operation (one multiplication). in the same way, to decrease a number by 25%, we subtract: 1 - 0.25 = 0.75 (mentally again) and again we apply it to our initial amount: 80 * 0.75 = 60 using this method, you will save valuable time, reducing the operations that you have to perform and, sometimes, your need of the calculator. i recommend starting with 'easy' percentages and round numbers, both multiplying and dividing (you can use the calculator when you need it), to see for yourself their effect on the figures. for example: to increase and decrease 200 by 25% 200 * 1.25 = 250 200 * 0.75 = 150 10
to increase and decrease 500 by 40% 500 * 1.40 = 700 500 * 0.60 = 300 to increase and decrease 300 by 30% 300 * 1.30 = 390 300 * 0.70 = 210 so, as you can see, when multiplying by more than the unit (1), we increase the initial number, and, on the contrary, when multiplying by less than the unit, we decrease the initial number. as you get used to practise this shortcut, you will feel more comfortable to do it with different and longer decimals. for example, to increase by 1%, we can multiply by 1.01 (i.e., 1 + 0.01); and to increase by 0.5%, we can multiply by 1.005 (i.e., 1 + 0.005). with the same idea, to decrease by 1%, we can multiply by 0.99 (because it is 1 - 0.01); and to decrease by 0.5%, we can multiply by 0.995 (because it is 1 - 0.005). here we present some examples: increasing 200 by 1% 200 * 1.01 = 202
