Sorry but stuck on stupid on this one.
If I have a random number – let’s say 545 and I reduce it by 20%. It’s reduced by 109 making it 436.
But if I want to increase it back to 545 I have to add 25%
Edit: Ahhhh Thank you all for this! Makes perfect sense now!

It may sound obvious, but the answer is “545 and 436 are different numbers”.
20% of 545 is 109, but 20% of 436 is 87.
