Question

What amount reduced by 36.4% is $20? Round your answer to two decimal places if needed.

Answer 1

We will have the following:

`\begin{gathered} x=(100\ast20)/((100-36.4))\Rightarrow x=31.44654088... \\ \\ \Rightarrow x\approx31.45 \end{gathered}`

So, the amount was approximately $31.45.
