Ok so I assume
28 and decreased by 12.5%
percent means partst out of 100 so
12.5%=12.5/100=0.125
first find 12.5% of 28 then subtract
0.125 times 28=3.5
decrease
28-3.5=24.5
answer is 24.5
Answer:
20 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagoreans theorem states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a = 12, squared = 144
b = 16, squared = 256
144 + 256 = 400
√400 = 20
20 feet is the answer.
Hope this helps.

It works because even if the numbers are broken apart, you are still multiplying the numbers by their values, it's only different because once broken apart, it's in expanded form instead of standard form. It also makes multiplication easier since you don't have to deal with such large numbers.
