Answer: (2.75-2.40)/(2.75) * 100 [Before rounding to the nearest tenth]

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for percentage decrease = (old-new)/(old) * 100

so substituting in, you get (2.75-2.40)/(2.75) * 100

From here, you can just plug this into a calculator (don't have on me rn)

3. The original price of the trampoline is $72

The marked off price is 72 times 70 percent.

72 x .70 = 50.4

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

It will cost $256542 to prepare the field for next weeks match.

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum dimensions of a field according to FIFA rules is 110 m by 75 m.

So, the maximum area of a field is (110 × 75) = 8250 square meters.

Now, 1 square meters is equivalent to 1.196 square yards.

So, the maximum area of a field is (8350 × 1.196) = 9867 square yards.

Now, given that it costs to make ready each square yard of a full-size FIFA field, $26 before each game.

Therefore, it will cost $(26 × 9867) = $256542 to prepare the field for next week's match. (Answer)
