How Does The Mangled Math Work on Self Care

Mangled: Reduces healing speed on that survivors by 20%.

I know that healing (16 seconds default) takes 20 seconds with the Mangled effect. This is because

16 / 0.8 = 20 sec


Self-Care, default has 50% heal speed, so it normally takes:

16 / 0.5 = 32 seconds to heal.


My question is that does Mangled + Self-Care work like:

16 / 0.3 = 53 seconds (since -20% speed on 50% speed may make 30% speed if its additive) ?

Or does it work like:

16 / 0.5 / 0.8 = 40 seconds ?


I dont use the perk but just curious.

    I'm pretty sure it's 40 seconds so the second calculation should be right.

    If my memory is correct, equations like these for perks is additive, so the 1st equation should be correct, which is 53 seconds. If i'm wrong, which I wouldn't be surprised if I am, than the 2nd equation would the the alternative answer.
