The answer would be 272 because youre trying to find the decrease which is
340x.20 because you always move the percent over two decimals. you would get 68 after multiplying it then u would subtract that number by 340.
You do what is asked for in the parentheses then multiply by the number outside of them.
So say we have the number: 54,321
The 5 would be worth 50,000 meaning it's in the ten thousands place.
The 4 would be worth 4,000 meaning it's in the thousands place.
.
The difference between them is a zero, so the ten thousands place is 10 times bigger than the thousands place
.
Hope that helps :)
