Answer:

32%

Explanation:

Olivia's cell phone bill last month was $125. This month her bill is $85. What is the percent of change in Olivia's bill?

The formula for Percent change =

Amount of change/Original amount × 100

Amount of change = Original amount = New amount

Original Amount/bill = $125

New amount/bill = $85

= $125 - $85

= $40

Percent change = $40/$125 × 100

Percent change = 0.32 × 100

Percent change = 32%

Therefore, the percent of change in Olivia's bill is 32%
