A skateboard was reduced in price from $50 to $43. What was the percent decrease? 16% 14% 7% 2%

OpenStudy (mertsj):

How much was the decrease?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

50 * .14 = 7 the decrease was 7 so 14 % is the right answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(1-(Final price/original))*100

OpenStudy (mertsj):

So put 7 over the original amount which is 50

OpenStudy (mertsj):

So, yes. 14% decrease
