Answer 2

Each week, 1cm=10%

Answer 3

12

Answer 4

I am pretty sure all you have to do is multiply 12 by 1.20. So you should do 12*1.20 to get your answer. The 1.20 represents the 120%.

Answer 5

Correct Ramen, 12 cm is original and 120% is 1.2 times that amount.
so you are right 12 x 1.2 just backing you up to avoid confusion
