brian sends an email which is 5242880 bytes then he sends another email which is 5880000 bytes how much bigger is his econd email than his first
express your answer as a percentage
please can you show me the method
take the larger - the smaller
divide that answer by the original smaller.
move the decimal 2 places to the right to get your answer changed to a percent.
To find out how much bigger Brian's second email is compared to the first one, you need to calculate the difference in bytes between the two emails and express it as a percentage.
First, subtract the size of the first email from the size of the second email:
Size difference = Size of second email - Size of first email
Size difference = 5880000 bytes - 5242880 bytes
Next, calculate the percentage difference using the following formula:
Percentage difference = (Size difference / Size of first email) x 100
Percentage difference = (Size difference / 5242880 bytes) x 100
Plug in the values:
Percentage difference = ((5880000 bytes - 5242880 bytes) / 5242880 bytes) x 100
Simplify:
Percentage difference = (637120 bytes / 5242880 bytes) x 100
Percentage difference ≈ 12.15%
Therefore, the second email is approximately 12.15% bigger than the first email.
