    FAQ

    What is 40% more than 15?

    40% more than 15 is 21

    What is 15 plus 40 percent?

    15 plus 40 percent is 21

    How much is 40% of 15?

    40% of 15 is 6 — that is the increase itself, and adding it to 15 gives 21.

    Why does taking 40% off 21 not bring you back to 15?

    Because the second percentage is measured against the larger number: 40% of 15 is 6, while 40% of 21 is more than that. To undo the increase, divide by 1.4 instead of subtracting 40%.

    What do you multiply 15 by to add 40%?

    By 1.4: 15 × 1.4 = 21 — 100% of 15 plus 40%.
