In case that B is 30% higher than A and C is 40 % higher than B, what % is C higher than A ?
Answer
Therefore C is 82% higher than A.
82%
Solution
Assuming that the height of A is 1, the height of B is 1 × (1 + 0.3) = 1.3 and the height of C is 1.3 × (1 + 0.4) = 1.82.
Therefore C is 82% higher than A.
