% decrease = change/original price x 100%
= (1200 - 900)/1200 x 100%
= 300/1200 x 100%
= 25%

Therefore, the number of pumpkins sold decreased by 25%.

Answer:

Marion bought 6 frog lures and 8 lizard fishing lures.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $f$ represent frog lures and $l$ represent lizard lures.

The total packages Marion bought is

$f+l=14...eqn1$

If she bought frog lures in packages of 4 and lizard lures in packages of 6 for a total of 72 lures, then

$4f+6l=72...eqn2$

We make $f$ the subject in equation 1 and put it into equation 2 to get;

$f=14-l...eqn3$

We put equation 3 into equation 2 to get;

$4(14-l)+6l=72$

$\Righttarrow 2(14-l)+3l=36$

We expand the bracket to get;

$28-2l+3l=36$

$-2l+3l=36-28$

$l=8$

We put $l=8$ into equation 3 to get;

$f=14-8$

$f=6$

Therefore Marion bought 6 frog lures and 8 lizard fishing lures.
