Answer 1

@Easyaspi314

Answer 2

I gave you the formula before.....

Percent decrease = change in price/original price

Answer 3

I mean 9.84 / (x/100) = 9.71

Answer 4

@SolomonZelman so it would be 9.7 if you round it

Answer 5

Change in price = $9.84 - $9.71 = .07

Answer 6

so is it 9.8 ?

Answer 7

Sorry...difference is $9.84 - $9.71 = .13

Answer 8

so the answer is .13 and that is already rounded?

Answer 9

So it is .13/9.84 = .013211

Answer 10

You can change that to a percent.

Answer 11

idk how

Answer 12

My bad,
do what Easyaspi314 said, subtract $9.84 - $9.71, and then put over 9.84
he beat me

Answer 13

Can you change a decimal to a percent?

Answer 14

B/c .13 is the same as 13%

Answer 15

so its 13% is the answer?

Answer 16

.a = times 100= a%

Answer 17

Take the decimal point and moce it 2 places to the right....you get
1.3211%

Answer 18

to the nearest dollar, yes

Answer 19

1.3 %

Answer 20

or 1.3% to the nearest tenth

Answer 21

Oh, my bad, sorry for misleading....

Answer 22

.13 is just 13 cents...that is just the difference in price
