Answer: - 8.89%
I am going to explain you in detail ir order to help you to be able to do this kind of problems by yourself.
The definition of percent change, %, is:
change
% = ---------------- * 100
base value
The base value is from where you start or the value for which you want to asses the variation.
So, in this case the base value is 90 (starting value).
The change is final value - initial value = 82 - 90 = - 8. The negative sign means that the value decreased.
So, following the formula you get:
82 - 90 - 8
% = ----------- * 100 = -------- * 100 = - 8.89
90 90
Answer: the percent of change is - 8.89 %, meaning that the value decreased 8.89%.
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:







Start by taking the information we know, and write equations to represent the realationships:
1) "1/8 lbs less flour to make bread than to make cookies"

2) "1/4 lb more flour to make cookies than to make brownies:

3) "she used 1/2 lb of flour ro make bread"

From here you can solve for

using back substitution.
