There are 5 envelopes in each pack.
Yesterday's price of notebook = $3.45
Today's price of notebook = $3.20
We have to determine the percentage decrease in the cost of notebook.
Percentage decrease = (Decrease
Old price) 
So, percentage decrease = 
=
= 7.246%
= 7.25%
Therefore, there is 7.25% of decrease in the cost of the notebook.
