Answer 1

Answer:

The percentage decrease in the price is 12.5 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Here 2000 is the total percentage ,.i.e., 100%

Let the percentage of rupees 1750 be a.

So now,

2000 = 100%

1750 = a %

a = 100 x 1750 / 2000

a = 87.5 %

Now the percentage decrease in the price is ,

100 % - 87.5 % = 12.5 %

Thus the percentage decrease in the price is 12.5%.

Answer 2

2000/1750 so we will cut 1 zero from each = 200/175 = 5×40/ 5× 35 = 40/35 = 5× 8 / 5× 35=8/7
