A table shows revenue rose 15% while headcount rose 40%. Which conclusion is best supported?
If staff grew faster than revenue, revenue per employee must have dropped. The others need cost data the table does not give — stick to what the numbers actually support.

A shop offers 30% off, then a further 10% off the reduced price. What is the total discount?
Multiply the remainders: 0.70 × 0.90 = 0.63, so the customer pays 63% and the discount is 37%. Stacked discounts never simply add up.
