Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:You can use a calculator also 1% of 800 is 8 .So multiply 20 by 8 which is 160 and 8 times 3 is 24 and 160 plus 24 is 184.

Answer: 223%

Explanation:

Deduct 616 from 800 to get the amount reduced. 800-616=184

184/800=0.23

convert to a percentage by multiplying by 100
