6.4% decrease is the correct answer

Convert the dollar amounts to cents to make the math easier.

$2.20 = 220¢
$2.35 = 235¢

The original price is 100%
The new price is x%

220/235 ≈ <span>0.93
</span>
Convert decimal into a percent by moving the decimal two places to the right and adding the % sign.

0.93 = 93%

100% - 93% = 7%

So, there was a 7% decrease in price.

12.6% of<br>RI 149 390bn​
galina1969 [7]

Answer: RI 18,823.14

Step-by-step explanation:

I guess that we want to find the 12.6% of Rl 149,390

First, we assume that Rl 149,390 is the 100%

Then we can write an equation like:

Rl 149,390 = 100%

Then if the amount X is the 12.6%, we also have the equation:

X = 12.6%

Then we have the two equations:

X = 12.6%

Rl 149,390 = 100%

If we take the quotient between these two equations we get:

(X/Rl 149,390) = (12.6%/100%)

Solving this for X we get:

X =  (12.6%/100%)*(Rl 149,390) = RI 18,823.14
