For this case we can use the following rule of three:
$ 500 ---------> 100%
$ 400 ---------> x
Clearing x we have:
x = (400/500) * (100) = 80%
Therefore, the percentage of decrease in the rent is:
p = 100-x
p = 100-80
p = 80%
Answer:
a proportion can be used to calculate p is:
p = 100 - ((400/500) * (100))
Neither...
205/1000 equals .205
So they are both the same.

Answer:
42 yards
Step-by-step explanation
There are 4 sides to a rectangle. 2 lengths, and 2 widths. That means that you multiply both values by 2 and then add them together, so 40 + 2. A more basic way to think of it is 20+20+1+1. Therefore, the perimeter is 41 yards.
