12.5% is dicreased.because in the amount of RS .40/ which is equal to 100% When it reduced to 35 then we have to look into 40 and reduce 5 rupees f and see how much persentage is different. In the amount of 40 , 10% is 4 and when we divide it still to know about one more rupee then we have to reduce from 4 then it comes almost 2.5 % so total is 12.5 %

decrease in price = 40 - 35 = rs 5 per kg
% decresase= ( 5/40 ) * 100 =500/40 % =12.5%
% decresase= ( 5/40 ) * 100 =500/40 % =12.5%
