What is the percent of change from 2000 to 200

Mathematics
1 answer:
Kamila [148]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: 90% decrease

Step-by-step explanation: First determine whether the number is increasing or decreasing. Since it changes from 2,000 to 200, it's going down so it's decreasing.

Now to find the percent decrease, we divide the

amount of change by the original number.

The <em>amount of change</em> is the difference between the two numbers

which in this case is 2,000 - 200 and the original number is 2,000.

So we have \frac{2,000 - 200}{2,000}.

2,000 - 200 is 1,800.

So we're left with 1,800/2,000 and dividing

2,000 into 1,800 gives us 0.9.

Remember however that our problem is

asking for a <em>percent</em>, not a decimal.

So we need to write 0.9 as a percent and we can do

that by multiplying it by 100 and adding the percent sign.

So 0.9 becomes 90%.

So when a number changes from 2,000 to 200,

it has decreased by 90%.

3^2+3^2=c^2

9+9=c^2

18=c^2

\sqrt{18}

this gives you 4.24

now add 6+6+4.24+4.24 to get 20.48

6. Maggie works at The Drug Store five days a week. Last week, she worked a
stepladder [879]

Answer: 7

and maybe 5.83

Step-by-step explanation:

If she worked 5 days a week, and worked the same hours of those days, then the answer is 7. You simply divide 35/5 which gives you that answer. And they’ve already given you the answer for Saturday, so yeah.


But you did say she only worked 5 days a week—in 35 hours. And you also said “how many hours did she work on the other days”. If Saturday’s hours was already stated, then are you implying she worked for 6 days instead of 5? Because there’s 7 days a week and if Saturday is unaccounted for, then she worked 6 days. In that case, your answer would be 5.83.
