<span>To find out what percent 7 out of 20 is, we need to ask: 7 out of 20 is how many out of 100? 5 groups of 20 make 100, so 7 out of 20 is 35 out of 100 (5 x 7 out of 5 x 20). Therefore 7/20 equals 35%, or 0.35 if we represent it as a decimal. I hope this helps</span>

Answer:

Find out the what is the price of oranges this week .

To prove

As given

last week the price of oranges at the farmers market was $1.75 per pound.

This week a price has decreased by 20% .

20% is written in the decimal form

$= \frac{20}{100}$

= 0.20

Decreased in the price = 0.20 × 1.75

= $0.35

The price of oranges this week = Price of orange at last week - Decreased in the price

= $1.75 - $0.35

= $ 1.4

Therefore the price of oranges this week is $1.4 .
