As soon as a new car is purchased and driven away from the dealership, it begins to lose its value, or depreciate. Alonso bought a 1994 Plymouth Neon for $9559. One year later, the value of the car was $8500. What was the percent of decrease of the value of the car?

P.S. This is a percent increase/decrrease
from: 9559
to: 8500

%/100 = differences of to and from/ from ( before the number )
( no negative difference, bigger number subtract smaller number)

Answer:

11%

Explanation:

$9559-$8500=1059

1059/9559= .110786

.110786 x 100= 11.0786%

11.0786%= 11%
