Question

The price of a sweater was reduced from 20$ to 12$. By what percentage was the price of the sweater reduced?

Answer 1

60%

Explanation:

`(12)/(20) * (x)/(100)`

12 * 100 is 1200

1200/20 = 60

Answer 2

60%

Explanation:

To find the reduction percentage, divide 12 by 20, then multiply by 100:

12/20

= 0.6

0.6(100)

= 60

So, the sweater was reduced by 60%
