Answer 2

Answer:

135

Step-by-step explanation:

You first have to figure out how much is 40 percent of 225 and to do that you would multiply $(\frac{40}{100} )(\frac{225}{1} )$ with each other but first, you would simplify and get $(\frac{2}{5} )(\frac{225}{1} )$ so then you would end up with $\frac{450}{90}$ so then that simplifies to 90. so 40 percent of 225 is 90 so you would subtract 90 from 225 with this equation 225-90 and that equals 135 so 225 decreased by 40 percent is 135.
