To confirm if the calculations are correct, let's double-check the answers:
#4) Increasing 35 by 40%:
You correctly calculated it as 35 * 1.4, which equals 49. So the new amount after a 40% increase is indeed 49. Therefore, your answer is correct.
#5) Increasing 125 by 8%:
You calculated it as 125 * 0.08, which gives you 10. However, to find the increased amount, you need to add this calculated value to the original amount.
Original amount: 125
8% of 125: 0.08 * 125 = 10
Increased amount: 125 + 10 = 135
So the correct answer is that increasing 125 by 8% results in a new amount of 135.
#6) Decreasing 8 by 75%:
You calculated it as 8 * 0.75, which gives you 6. This calculation is correct, and the new amount after a 75% decrease is indeed 6.
Therefore, your answer is correct.
#7) Decreasing 135 by 22%:
You calculated it as 135 * 0.22, which gives you 29.7. However, to find the decreased amount, you need to subtract this calculated value from the original amount.
Original amount: 135
22% of 135: 0.22 * 135 = 29.7
Decreased amount: 135 - 29.7 = 105.3
So the correct answer is that decreasing 135 by 22% results in a new amount of 105.3.
In summary:
#4: 49 (correct)
#5: 135 (corrected)
#6: 6 (correct)
#7: 105.3 (corrected)
I hope this clarifies the correct answers for you.
