Zara |
Anna |
Comparing Zara and Anna at first |
10x4 = 40 u |
7x4 = 28 u |
Before |
8x5 = 40 u |
|
Change |
- 5x5 = - 25 u |
+ 5x5 = + 25 u |
After |
3x5 = 15 u |
53 u |
70% =
70100 =
710The number of buttons that Zara had at first is repeated. Make the number of buttons that Zara had at first the same. LCM of 10 and 8 is 40.
Number of buttons that Anna had in the end
= 28 u + 25 u
= 53 u
Number of more buttons that Anna had than Zara in the end
= 53 u - 15 u
= 38 u
Number of more buttons that Anna had than Zara in the end in percent
=
3815 x 100%
≈ 253.3%
Answer(s): 253.3%
