Answer:

it would be a 12% decrease. 0.88 is 88% (multiply by 100 to find the percentage) of the original price (x, which is 100%). as an example, say x=1000.  

0.88(1000)=880

880 is 88% of 1000, but the original price did not decrease by 88%/$880. Instead, subtract this percentage from 100.  

100%-88%=12%  

there, you find the percentage lost/the percentage of the value decrease.
