Answer:

47.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to first subtract 80 and 42 to find the decrease first. This is 38. Now, you have to divide this by the original number which is 80. So 38 divided by 80 is 0.475.

Now multiply this by 100.

You can easily move the decimal point to the right.

So you would get 47.5%

Hope this helped!
