Answer:

83%

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you need to calculate is how much less time she plays per day.

 

3 hours - X = 30 minutes

x = 2.5 hours

 

Now that you know how much time has decreased, you need to figure out what percent of the original time the decreased time is.

 

In other words, decreased time = x * 3 hours

 

Plug in the decreased time to get:

2.5 hours = x * 3 hours

x = 2.5/3

x = 0.83333333333333 = 83.333333% rounds to 83%.

 

Therefore, 30 minutes is a 83% decrease in playing time from the original time of 3 hours.

Answer:

83% decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

She can play video games 180 minutes a day. Now she can only play 30 minutes a day.

       \frac{180 - 30}{180} * 100%

 =    \frac{150}{180} * 100%

 =    \frac{5}{6} * 100%

 =    83%
