If the number of projects handled by company A increased by 20% from 2007 to 2008 and by 5% from 2008 to 2009, what was the number of projects handled by company A in 2009?

Answer: Option A

Number of projects handled by company A in 2008
= 120% of 300
= $$\frac{120\times 300}{100}$$
= 360
Number of projects handled by company A in 2009
= 105% of 360
= $$\frac{105\times 360}{100}$$
= 378
