Question

From 83 to 46 percent change

Answer 1

Answer:

-44.58%

Step-by-step explanation:

If I spent $83 on a coat and the next week found it for $46,  how much did it change? Well 83-46 is $37 and is -$37 because that's how much money I lost. To find the percent change we divide the difference of -37 by the total 83.

-37/83= - 0.44578

To convert from a decimal to a percent, I multiply by 100.

-0.44578(100)= -44.58 rounded.
