What is the percent of change from 2000 to 200

Kamila [148]3 years ago

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%.

Answer:

2.1 hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1 hr, Phillip would have proofed 1/7 of the chapter. In 1 hr, Kim would have proofed 1/3 of the chapter. So, together in 1 hr, they would have proofed 10/21 of the chapter. So, it would take 21/10 or 2.1 hrs to proof the whole chapter together.
