Answer:

2.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

(2.80-2.73)/2.73

0.07/2.73

0.02564

Convert to Percentage

0.02564 times 100

2.564%

To one decimal place

In rounding up numbers, numbers 1 to 4 are rounded up to zero, while numbers 5 to 9 are rounded up to 1.

To one decimal place, we look at the second decimal place which is 6. Digit 6 is rounded up to 1, which will be added to the first decimal place, 5+1=6

Hence we have 2.6

Answer is 2.6%

Answer:

2.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

First get the decrease .

The decrease is the difference between the two prices .

Decrease = $2.80 - $2.73

= $0.07

% decrease = decrease/initial price

That’s

% decrease = $0.07/$2.80 x 100%

= 0.025 x 100%

= 2.5%

The percentage decrease is 2.5%
