T=68.9$
Answer:
8 out of 84: 90% decrease
200 out of 238: 16% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
To find a percent decrease, you first subtract the end number by the initial number. This gives you the change.
ex. 84-8=76
Now you divide the change by the initial number. You'll get a decimal.
ex. 76/84=0.904...
Multiply the decimal times 100, or move the decimal to the right twice.
ex. 0.904... -> 90.4...
Now round to the nearest ones place
ex. 90.4 -> 90%
60 dollars. You multiply 15 four times because 25% of the cost is 15 so you multiply it by 4 to get the total answers.
<u>Answer:
</u>
The population of a city has decreased by 38% since it was last measured. If the current population is 27,900 .Previous population of city was 45000.
<u>
Solution:
</u>
Given that current population of city is 27900.
Also, population of a city has decreased by 38% since it was last measured.
Let assume that population of city when it was last measured = x
Decreased of 38% means x-38% of x . we can write this as,



So current population is 
Equating above expression to the given value of current population, we get


x=45000
Hence previous population of city was 45000.
