Answer:
20%
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Subtract starting value minus the final value (decrease)
Step 2: Divide the decrease by the original number
Step 3: Multiply the result by 100 to get a percent decrease
Therefore, the percent decrease of the price of paper per package is 20%
<em>Note: If the percentage is negative, it means there was an increase and not a decrease.</em>
It’s easier if you turn the fractions into decimals and arrange them in order from biggest to smallest. 3/4= 0.75, 5/6= 0.83, 7/9= 0.77, 1/2= 0.5, 2/3= 0.66, 7/12= .583, 15/24= 0.625. Then obviously, you order them from biggest to smallest:
0.83 (5/6), 0.77 (7/9), 0.75 (3/4), 0.66 (2/3), 0.583 (7/12), 0.5 (1/2).

Answer:
Tax = $12 Tip = $18 Total Cost = $130
Step-by-step explanation:
tax = tax percentage x amount
0.12 x 100 = 12
tip = tip percentage x amount
0.18 x 100 = 18
The Total Cost
total cost = cost + tax + tip
100 + 12 + 18
Add them up and it would be
$130
