Answer:

In June it was 8 grams at $400

It lost 6% every month.

Let's look for 6% of $400

6/100 x 400 = $24

It lost $24 every month from July to December, that's 6 months

Let's multiply $24 by 6 months

$24 x 6 = $144

It lost the value of $144 from July to Dec.

Therefore, The cost of the 8 grams gold in Dec is

$400 - $144 = $356
