Isha, a super excited candy crush user, has increased her points by 75% percents in a week. shes at 14000 points now. how many points did Isha have on candy crush last week?

If she has increased by 75% in a week to get 14000 points then  we can say that 175% times a number has to equal 14,000 , where the number of points she had last week.

175% * x = 14000

1.75x =14000     Divide both sides by 1.75

x= 8000

So she had 8000 points last week.

Check:

175% * 8000= 14000

1.75 * 8000 = 14000

  14000 = 14000

8,000 points

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 0.75x = 14,000 (the initial amount of points X plus 0.75x)

1.75x = 14000

x = 14000/1.75

x = 8,000
