Question

decrease 80 by 37.5%​

Answer 1

Answer:

50 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

A change from 80 to 50 represents a negative change (decrease) of -37.5%

Use the formula found below on this webpage to find the percent change by replacing the given values:

Percent change = New - Old

|Old|

× 100%

Percent change = 50 - 80

|80|

× 100% =

-30

80

× 100 = -37.5% (decrease)

Where: 80 is the old value and 50 is the new value. In this case we have a negative change (decrease) of -37.5 percent because the new value is smaller than the old value.
