Cevap

The total number of active subscribers the platform will have next month is 560560.
To find the total number of active subscribers after a 12%12\% increase, first calculate 12%12\% of 500500. This is done by converting 12%12\% to its decimal equivalent, 0.120.12, and multiplying by the base: 500×0.12=60500 \times 0.12 = 60. Then, add the increase to the initial value: 500+60=560500 + 60 = 560. Alternatively, multiply the initial value by 1.121.12 to directly get the new total: 500×1.12=560500 \times 1.12 = 560. Therefore, the total number of active subscribers next month is 560560.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the amount of increase by finding 12%12\% of the initial 500500 subscribers.
500×0.12=60500 \times 0.12 = 60
To find the number of new subscribers, the percentage of increase must be multiplied by the initial amount.
2
Add the increase to the initial number of subscribers to find the new total.
500+60=560500 + 60 = 560
An increase means adding the calculated amount of change to the baseline value.
