You need to find what percentage the difference is of 72.  

First, subtract 60 from 72:

72-60=8

Next, divide 8 by 72:

8/72=0.1111

To convert this decimal to a percentage, multiply it by 100:

100*0.1111=11.11

The percent decrease is 11.11%.

Hope this helps!!

Insert parenthesis () to make the following problem true: 3+6-2x4=19
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

3+(6-2)*4=19

Step-by-step explanation:

Due to PEMDAS, it would first be required to do "6-2", which is 4.

Then, the 4 in the parenthesis is multiplied by the 4 on the outside, making 16.

Finally, 3 would be added to 16, making 19.
