I’m sorry if this is a dumb question but I’m a little confused on the the last question if you multiplied how exactly did the number get lower instead of higher

I’m a little confused on why you wouldn’t use a different operation for this answer?

I am using calculator on pre GED practicing question for chapter 7 exercise is “Understanding Percent” so is it okay to use calculator on these type of questions if there is one in GED? Asking so I don’t build bad habit
Questions like:
___ = 21% of 56,
52 = 40% of ____,
42 = ____% of 70,
____ = 45% of 89,
Etc

Hello Sir Teacher! There are two GED practice exercise questions I was doing to complete my chapter and these two questions went over my head and don’t understand how they answered it and what method they used:

1) The population of a town increased 15% in 3 years. The population of the town was 6, 000 originally. What is the population after the increase?

2) A storekeeper makes a profit of 25% when item A is sold. If Item W costs the store $20, what is it’s selling price?

Step by step way on how this problem was solved plz I saw the answer behind the textbook and they showed the answers:

question 1: 6, 000 x 1.15 = 6, 900 (I don’t understand how they got 1.15 and what method they used etc)

Question 2: 20 x 1.25 = 25 (same for like question 1 don’t understand where 1.25 comes from)
