When the price of a computer was reduced by 20%, the sale increased by 60%.
What was the increase in total revenue?
✓ Solution
Let original price = 100 and quantity sold = 100.
Original revenue = 100 × 100 = 10,000.
New price = 80, new sales = 160.
New revenue = 80 × 160 = 12,800.
Increase in revenue = (12,800 − 10,000)/10,000 × 100 = 28%.
