andre [41]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

60% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage increase/ decrease construct a fraction with numerator showing increase/ decrease and denominator with original number then multiply the fraction by 100%

here the decrease = 45 - 18 = 27

percent decrease = \frac{decrease}{original} × 100%

                             = \frac{27}{45} × 100% = 60%

How can you use the properties of operations to evaluate<br> this expression?<br> 18 + 4(28)
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

Well on of the properties states that unless there are parenthesis, you multiply and divide first then you add and subtract. So, first we multiply 28*4 and that leaves use with 112, now if there is no more multiplication, division, or parentheses, and there's not. We can continue all we do is add 18+112 and we get our answer of 130.
