If A x B = 100, what will happen to the value of A when the value of B is doubled?
for example if A is 20 and B is 5 which 20x5=100
if we double B so Bis now 10, A becomes 10 which is 1/2 of its original amount
if we double B again from 10 to get 20, A loses half its value from 10 to 5
so the value of A is decreased by half
