Answer:

33.34%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The actual price of the shirt = $36

Price on sale = $24

We need to find the percent of the decrease. The formula for the percentage is given by :

\%=\dfrac{|\text{actual value-estimated value}|}{\text{actual value}}\times 100

Putting all the values,

\%=\dfrac{24-36}{36}\times 100\\\\=33.34\%

So, the percentage decrease in the price of the shirt is 33.34%.

1.5 lbs of gum balls I want to buy it’s 3.99 per pound
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

$5.99 for 1.5 lbs of gumballs

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to buy One and a half pounds of gumballs for $3.99 per pound. It is 3.99 for one pound of gumballs, so the price for half a pound of gumballs is half of that price.

3.99 / 2 = 1.995

Then add the price of 1 pound

3.99 + 1.995 = 5.985

Then you can round that up to 5.99
