Answer 1

The answer is 10%.

Solution:
To get the percentage decrease of the price of the shirt, you have to subtract 46.58 - 41.92 = 4.66 .
Then the divide 4.66 / 46.58 = 0.10004294 .
Then round the decimal and you will get 0.10 .
Then move 2 steps from the decimal then you will get the percentage 10.
So the answer is 10%.
