Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Percentage Increase Factor: The multiplier that represents the effect of a percentage increase on a quantity. It is calculated as 1 plus the percentage increase divided by 100. (Author: general mathematical principle)
    Example: A 10% increase corresponds to a percentage increase factor of 1.10.

  • Calculation of Change Factor for a Given Percentage Increase: To find the change factor, convert the percentage increase into a decimal and add 1. (Author: basic percentage-to-factor conversion)
    Formula: Change factor = 1 + (percentage increase / 100)

  • Applying Percentage Increase Factors Sequentially: When multiple percentage increases are applied one after another, multiply their respective change factors to find the overall effect. (Author: multiplicative property of percentage changes)
    Example: An increase of 10% followed by 20% results in a total change factor of 1.10 × 1.20 = 1.32, equivalent to a 32% increase.
