A 40% reduction |

Cathy pose la question :
I'm having trouble figuring out how to figure a percentage??? it's easy to find what 40% of any given number is, but how would i accurately figure out what is the final number is when i know the number after the 40% has been removed? when i add 40% to this number it obviously is lower than it should
be. the best i could figure is;
x=?-40% ---------------> x-?=-40% i'm all confused????

Rise pose la question :
Q1: a2 + 5a + 6
I didn't really understand the purpose of the teacher's steps, but was able to get my daughter to find factors of 6 and then add them together to find which resulted in the sum of 5.
Unfortunately, this problem-solving technique did not help us to solve for the more complex problems as follows:
