Answer:

34%

Explanation:

<em>To </em><em>find </em><em>the </em><em>percentage</em><em> </em><em>decrease </em><em>we </em><em>must</em><em> </em><em>first </em><em>find </em><em>the </em><em>difference</em><em> </em><em>between</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>two </em><em>numbers,</em><em> </em><em>so,</em><em> </em><em>$</em><em>5</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>–</em><em> </em><em>$</em><em>3</em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>$</em><em>1</em><em>8</em><em>.</em><em> </em><em>Now </em><em>we </em><em>must </em><em>divide </em><em>our </em><em>answer </em><em>by </em><em>the </em><em>original </em><em>price </em><em>and </em><em>then </em><em>multiply </em><em>it </em><em>by </em><em>100,</em><em> </em><em>so,</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>1</em><em>8</em><em> </em><em>÷</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em>2</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>×</em><em> </em><em>100 </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em>4</em><em>.</em><em>6</em><em>2</em><em>.</em>

<em>Our </em><em>answer </em><em>is </em><em>3</em><em>4</em><em>%</em><em> </em><em>because </em><em>we </em><em>must </em><em>round </em><em>it </em><em>off </em><em>to </em><em>the </em><em>nearest</em><em> </em><em>percent.</em>
