Answer:

28% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

If we decrease by 60%, we are keeping 100-60 = 40%

Let x be the original amount

decrease by 60% = keep 40%

.40 x

If we increase by 80%, we are keeping 100+80 = 180%

(.40x) * 180%

.40x * 1.80

.72x

Take .72 times the original amount

100 - .72 = 28

It decreased 28 %
