an item was selling for $72 is reduced to $60 find the precent decrease in price round your answer to the nearest tenth

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Remember this, 5 or higher goes up, 4 or lower the number stays the same. soooo.... lets see how i can start this off...
well,... you could....60 divided by 72 equals.... 0.8333333333333
then, starting from the decimal.. you go two spaces to the right... so thats 83.3333333333
so, since 3 is lower than 4, it would be the same.. and take off the extra three after the decimal. and we're basically... rounding off right??
so your answer should be 80%
Hope i helped!!! :D

August hosted two dinner parties for his friends. Twenty guests attended the first party, and twenty-six guests attended the second party. What is the percentage increase of the number of guests from the first party to the second party?

Answers

Answer: 30%


Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to find the increase in numbers

26-20= 6

Now you find the percent. This means you're looking for the percent 6 is equal to when compared to 20. The easiest way is to divide the increase by the original number

6/20= 0.3

To convert that to percent, multiply it by 100

0.3 * 100= 30%

There was a 30% increase.
