A 60% increase is the same as multiplying the number by 1.60\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "That number is found by divideing the 60% by 100. and Then adding 1 so that the nuber is increased rather than decreased.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So 1.60*X = 320
\n" ); document.write( "Divide 320 by 1.60
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28X+=+200%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
