as soon as i posted i realised im a muppet

(500/1500*100)/100*110

If 500 is 1500%, then 100% is 500 / 15 = 33.33 recurring

So 110% = 33.33 * 1.1 = 36.66 recurring

divide 500 by 1500 to get 1%, then multiply by 110 to get 110% i think

Divide 500 by 1500 to get 1%. Multiply this answer by 110 to get 110%. 36.67

500/1500=1%
1%x110 +110%
So 500/1500x110

500 is 1500%

First, what is 100%?

1500% divided by 15.00 = 100%
or
500 divided by 15.00 = 33.3333

So 110% = 1.10*33.3333 = 36.6666
