Car price 450000

Ist year 12% decrease = 450000 ×12/100

= 54,000

Price after 1st year = 450000 - 54000

= 396000

2nd year 15% decrease = 396000 × 15/100

= 59400

Price after 2nd year = 396000 - 59400

= 336600

Now decrease %

= ( 450000- 336600) ×100 / 450000

= ( 113400 × 100) / 450000

= 25.2%

Decrease in rate = 25.2% = 25% (approx)

Thanks
