You increase the size of a page by 30%

. then you decrease it by 30%

. what is the size of the page now?

a. the size you started with
b. the same size you started with.
c. it depends on the original size.
d. larger than the size you started with.

The correct answer is A, smaller than the size you started with. Because you increased the size by 30% of the original page, and then took 30% of the larger page, you're taking more away than you increased it by. For instance, if you had a page that was 60 units², and you increased it by 30% (18 units), you would get 78 units^2. However, if you took 30% of 78 (23.4) and subtracted it, you would get 54.6 units², which is smaller than 60 units².

Hope this helps! now can I get brainliest answer?
