58 of what she had. How many more percent did Anna have than Kylie in the end? Correct the answer to 1 decimal place.

Anna |
Comparing Kylie and Anna at first |
5x8 = 40 u |
2x8 = 16 u |
Before |
8x5 = 40 u |
|
Change |
- 5x5 = - 25 u |
+ 5x5 = + 25 u |
After |
3x5 = 15 u |
41 u |
40% =
40100 =
25The number of cards that Kylie had at first is repeated. Make the number of cards that Kylie had at first the same. LCM of 5 and 8 is 40.
Number of cards that Anna had in the end
= 16 u + 25 u
= 41 u
Number of more cards that Anna had than Kylie in the end
= 41 u - 15 u
= 26 u
Number of more cards that Anna had than Kylie in the end in percent
=
2615 x 100%
≈ 173.3%
Answer(s): 173.3%
