Hi all i am new to the forum and many thanks for taking time out of your day to read my question. Where this might be easy for you guys, I really need help on how to solve these type of % questions, here goes!
The wording is really throwing me off tackling the problem!
Bacteria increases by 31% every hour. If the starting mass of bacteria is 3 grams, what is the mass after a day?
Second one is this:
8% of the students in a college drop out of a course every week. If 4000 start, how many will be left after 10 weeks?
If you guys can help me with a formula or explain what and how you got the answer I would be eternally grateful!
