<h2>a. Answer:</h2>
For this question we'll use the following method:
1. Let's subtract old value from new value
185$-160$ = -25$
The negative value implies that the price has decreased
2. Divide the result by the old value
25$/185$ = 0,1351
3. Convert this value to percentage:
0,1351 x 100 = 13,51%
Finally, by rounding to the nearest tenth:
13,5%
That means 13,5% decrease
<h2 /><h2>b. Answer:</h2>
1. Let's subtract old value from new value
77$-56$ = 21$
The positive value implies that the price has increased
2. Divide the result by the old value
21$/77$ = 0,2727
3. Convert this value to percentage:
0,2727 x 100 = 27,3%
Finally, by rounding to the nearest tenth:
27,3%
That means 27,3% increase
Answer:
Firstly, we have to transform CHF to 
in order to work with the same currency and make the comparisson:
If 
Then:
Now we can make the comparisons:
a) In Geneva the watch costs 
and in Manchester it costs 
.
According to this:
<h2>In Geneva the watch is cheaper</h2>
b) If we want to know by how much is cheaper, we have to substract from the expensive price the value of the cheaper price:
Therefore:
<h2>The watch in Geneva is
cheaper than the same watch in Manchester.</h2>
The answer is positive final answer
False they are not exact recipricals
