    If the initial amount p leads to a percent change x, and the second percent change is y, then the final amount is p (1 + 0.01 x)(1 + 0.01 y). To change the above example, after an increase of x = 10 percent and decrease of y = −5 percent , the final amount, $209, is 4.5% more than the initial amount of $200.

    For example, to change ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ to a decimal expression, divide 1 by 4 (" 4 into 1 "), to obtain exactly 0.25. To change ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ to a decimal expression, divide 1... by 3 (" 3 into 1...
