Question

An iPad that was originally on sale for $1075 is now on sale for $ 623.50. What is the percent markdown( percent decrease)?

Answer 1

Answer = 58%

Explanation : you would have to set up a portion table were the sale amount (623.50) would go and the original/total price would go (1075$) and since you are trying to find the % you would put x over 100 , and then cross multiply while it’s set up so 623.50 times 100 =62,350 and you would take the answer and divide it by 1075x which would get you to 58 and that would equal x .
