<span>The word in question is "starting." Taking away the second "t" gives "staring." Next, taking away the "a" gives "string," and taking away the "r" gives "sting." Further, dropping the second "t" gives "sing." Next, removing the "g" leads to "sin," the "s" gives "in," and finally taking away the "n" leaves the word "I."</span>
-0.65625 or -21/32 should be your answer just cross multiply

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
Call Monday's price, P
Tuesday's price must just be .80P [ 20% reduction]
Call Wednesday's price reduction ( 1 - R)
So...we have that
Tuesday's price * Wednesday's reduction = (1/2)P
(.80)P *( 1 - R) = (1/2)P divide through by P and note that 1/2 = .50
.80 (1 - R) = .50 divide both sides by .80
1 - R = .50/.80
1 - R = 5/8
1 - 5/8 = R
3/8 = R = .375 = 37.5% = the reduction from Tues. to Wed.
Proof of this...let Monday's price = 100
Tuesdays price = .80 * 100 = 80
Wed price = 80 (1 - R) = 80 (1 - .375) = 50 = half of Mon. price
1 plus 1 equal 2 because your just adding
