Step-by-step explanation:

From a, the original number is 100x the new number.

So,if the new number is 1unit --> the original is 100x 1unit --> 100units

Add the two numbers together --> 1unit + 100units --> 101 units

We also know that the difference between the two numbers is 136.62

So 100units - 1unit --> 136.62

99units -> 136.62

1unit --> 1.38

101units --> 139.38
