Hi, in this session will be learning about successive percentages now what really is a successive percentage it is percentage on percentage didn’t understands ok let’s do that with this example A scores 10% more than B, while B scores 20% more than C . By what percentage did is A score more than C right so if we go with the method of base hundred right since he has score least number of marks let’s assume the mark scored by C as 100 we know that B has scored 20% more than him so he would have scored 120 right it’s obvious however A has scored 10% more than B what that means is if B has scored 120, 10% of 120 will be 12 so A has got 12 more than 120 which is 132 so now I compare A’s marks with C’s marks its clear that A has scored 32% more than C the correct answer is 32% right this is what is successive percent we have already increase the value by certain percent and increase the change value by some other percent and that is called successive percent, percent on percent now it could be increased or decreases will see that later but a better way of understanding by this diagram
