Question

decrease 216 by 37 1by2%what is the result

Answer 1

$\frac{216}{371?} = 0.582 \\ now \\ \frac{0.582}{100?} = 0.00582 \\ so \: 2percent \: of \: \frac{216}{371?} \\ = 0.00582 \times 2 = 0.01164 \\ subtracting \\ 0.01164 \: from \: 0.58200 \\ 0.58200 - 0.01164 = 0.51636 \\ therefor \: answer \: is \: 0.51636$
