I want to ask a text question about clients amount. Assuming his answer is 100 $,
I want to ask in the next question the following:
"Assume you invested 100$ (which is the input from the previous question), how much money you are willing to lose:
a) 80$ (meaning a formula of the input of 100$ multiply by 0.8)
b) 60$ (meaning a formula of the input of 100$ multiply by 0.6).

So basically I want both the question and choices to be adaptive.
Is it possible?

Ys1980 yes assuming the first value is only numeric and the respondent is not entering the $ (the program will not read 100$ as a number and if it's not a number you can't do math functions on it).
