To find a decrease using a percentage you:

Original Amount - (Original Amount x Percentage)

So plug in:

32000 - (32000 x 7%) = 32000 - (32000 x 0.07) = 29760

The amount with a 7% decrease is $29,760.

A bicycle was originally sold for $400 was on sale for $320. what percent was the bike marked down?
Eva8 [605]
100% of the price = $400
x % of the price = $320
we need to find x

using a proportion
100 : 400 = x : 320
100 * 320 = 400 * x
32000 = 400x
x = 32000 / 400
x = 80

That means the new price is 80% of the previous price.
100% - 80% = 20%
and based on this we can make a conclusion that the discount was 20%

I hope it is clear to you, feel free to ask anything about it :)

\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
7.5&900\\
2.5&x
