    The most amazing thing about your style of teaching is that you make harder matters look easier with simple logical elaboration. I have been following you since it's helping me a lot in my time management and keeping my composure during timed practice sessions. I am trying to learn and work on how to keep so calm and effectively fast without being nervous (of time) and sloppily hasty from you. Could you make a video on time and stress management during the original test? I would love to see that coming.

    Summary:
    If we are finding an original value
    -> If it is a %inc that gave us the current value then we can find the original value by dividing the current value with (1 + ( .inc )).
    -> If it is a %dec that gave us the current value then wee can find the original value by dividing the current value with (1 - (.dec)).
    Anyways, a good informative video like always!

I am preparing for the GMAT; hence, I am not sure why you have only referred to the GRE, particularly in these two percentage videos. I would greatly appreciate your clarification. Many thanks!

    Hi Philip! First of all - thank you sooo so much for your content! I was wondering if you could explain why you do not do 87360 = 1.05n + 0.8(1.05n) + 1.3 (0.8) (1.05n) because isn't the 2nd year a 20% decrease of the first year (1.05n)? Thank you so much!

    Philip always coming in clutch with the best explanations, if I end up breaking that 158 barrier it will all be thanks to you haha. I was wondering if you could do a video on how to pace the actual exam, maybe give us examples on how you take it? I have found that my biggest issue is in the final quant section where Im incredibly tired so I end up making stupid mistakes like taking 4 minutes on a question or not reading if something is an integer or maybe not understanding the question. How do you pace your actual exam? :) Thanks for all the help

  • @chandanoyal
    @chandanoyal 2 года назад +1

    Hi, Philip hope you are doing good! I watch all your videos and they are splendid. just confused in this one as can you please let me know when they're a 12% decrease in a question, what we have to use is it /1.12 or *.88?

    • @TheTestedTutor
      @TheTestedTutor  2 года назад +2

      To do a 12% decrease we do x0.88. To undo a 12% increase we do /1.12.

    Hi Philip, when we're reversing the increase at 5:35 can't we multiply 26880 by 0.88 to decrease it to the original salary? You get a close number but not exactly the answer we're looking for, so why not? Thanks!

    • @TheTestedTutor
      @TheTestedTutor  3 года назад +2

      Exactly! That is the mistake to avoid. It gets a different number. Decreasing and increasing are not perfect opposites in percentages. :)

      1725*1.08=1863

  • @saitejagoruganthu4045
    @saitejagoruganthu4045 3 года назад

    For the first question...If for second year, the growth rate went "further" 8% then shouldn't that be 15+8=23% increase in the second year.
    So that would make..
    1500*1.15*1.23

    • @ajayeswar1409
      @ajayeswar1409 3 года назад

      No. X original value. After step-1, it becomes - x*1.15 . Now it further inceased 8 %, so final value - (x*1.15) which is the new base * (0.08) which is same as (x*1.23)
