To find:

The steps to prove the given statement by using the properties of multiplication.

Solution:

We have,

$4\times 50 =8\times 25$

Taking left hand side, we get

$LHS=4\times 50$

$LHS=4\times (2\times 25)$

In one month, the median home price in the West fell from $203,400 to $192,300. Find the percent decrease.

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

94.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent decrease can be represented as

[original price] * percentage = [new price]

When trying to find the percentage, you can manipulate the equation by dividing both sides by the original price to get:

percentage = [new price] / [original price]

In this case, this is represented by 192300/203400, or 94.5%
