To round off a given number in decimals to one decimal place (1 dp), we simply take the figure right after the decimal and approximate the remaining after it. If the second number after the decimal is a significant number (5 and above) we make it 1 and add to the number right after the decimal. If its NOT a significant number, we simply disregard it. The solutions therefore are;
ANSWER:

Notice how the number in (1) becomes 0.7, after taking the next number (which is 9) and adding it as 1 to the number after the decimal (which is 6). The same applies to the number in (3).
Answer:
-30% or 30% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
What's percentage decrease?
- Percent decrease is the difference between the initial value and new value, indicating a loss of value.
- The formula to find percent decrease is
, where NV = new value and IV = initial value.
How do we solve this problem?
- We know that the original value was $60, so that represents IV. Also, now that the price is $42, it represents NV.
- Now, we plug in the values!
Therefore, the answer is 30% decrease.
