Question

The price of a desktop computer decreases from $1360 to $1020. Find the percentage decrease in its price

Answer 1

-20% discount

Explanation:

subtract the two numbers:

1020-1360= -340 (is a percentage reduction, so I have to subtract the larger number from the smaller one)

divide the result by the original value:

-340÷1360= -0,25

to turn it into a percentage, multiply it by 100:

-0,25×100= -25%
