Drag each scenario to show whether the final result will be greater than the original value, less than the original value, or the same as the original value.

1. A $30 increase followed by a $30 decrease
2. A 20% decrease followed by a 40% increase
3. A 100% increase followed by a 50% decrease
4. A 75% increase followed by a 33% decrease
5. 55% decrease followed by a 25% increase

Greater than the original = 2, 4

Less than the original = 5

Same as the original = 1, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original value be x.

1. A $30 increase followed by a $30 decrease.

New value , it is same as original value.

2. A 20% decrease followed by a 40% increase.

Afer 20% decrease.

New value

Afer 40% increase.

New value , it is greater than original value.

Similarly check the other values.

3. A 100% increase followed by a 50% decrease.

New value , it is same as original value.

4. A 75% increase followed by a 33% decrease

New value , it is greater than the original value.

5. 55% decrease followed by a 25% increase

New value , it is less than the original value.

Therefore, Greater than the original = 2, 4, Less than the original = 5, Same as the original = 1, 3 .
