Assuming that the two investments are X & Y
X + Y = 6300
X = 6300 - Y (1)
9/100X + 4/100 Y = 372 (2)
replacing X from (1) into (2)
9/100(6300-Y) + 4/100 Y = 372
567 - 9/100Y +4/100Y = 372
(-9+4)/100Y = 372 - 567
5/100Y = -195
Y = 100*195/5 = 3900
From (1) we can get X
X = 6300 - 3900 = 2400

First you have to know the price of item.
EX: Say a candy car costs $1.50.
The candy bar was marked down 30%.
$1.50 x 30/100 = $.45
The item will decrease $.45.
$1.50 - $.45 = $1.05
To do it without a calculator:
10% of 67 is 6.7
6.7 x 8 is 53.6 (80%)
1% of 67 is .67
53.6 - .67 is 52.93 (79%)
