Answer 2

The percentage of decrease in price of the car as old price is 28.57 %.

Explanation:

Given:

The cost of the car 2 years ago is Rs. 560000.

The cost of the car  at present  Rs. 400000.

To Find:

The decrease in price of the car as a percentage of the old price.

Solution:

The decrease in price of the car

$= Rs.560000 - Rs.400000$

$= Rs. 160000$

The percentage of decrease in price of the car as old price

$=\frac{decrease\ in\ price\ of\ the \ car}{old\ price\ of\ the\ car} \times 100$

$=\frac{160000}{560000} \times 100$

$=28.57\%$

Thus,the percentage of decrease in price of the car as old price is 28.57 %.
