Answer 1

Decrease = 110 - 88 = 22.  22 as a percentage of 110 =  22/110 * 100 = 20%

Answer 2

Answer:

The number decreases 20% of a number 110 if 110 is decreased to 88.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number=110

After decreasing , number=88

Decrease in number  =110-88

Decrease  in number =22

By simplification

To find the percent of decrease

Percent of decrease=$\frac{Decrease\; value }{Initial \;value} \times 100$

Percent of decrease=$\frac{22}{110} \times 100$

Percent of decrease= 20 %

Hence, the number decreases 20% of a number 110 if 110 is decreased to 88.
