Question

Decrease 500 by 12.5%

Answer 1

Given: The number 500 with 12.5%

To find: Decrease 500 by 12.5%

Solution:

• Now we have given the number 500.

• Now first we need to calculate 12.5% of 500.

• So:

                 500 x 12.5%

                 500 x 12.5/100

                 5 x 12.5

                 62.5

• Now we have asked to decrease it from 500, so:

                 500 - 62.5 = 437.5

Answer:

            So the value of the given term is 437.5
