How does the value of 874.12 change if the decimal point is moved two places to the left?

Rashid [163]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When you move the decimal either to the right or the left, you change the value. To divide any number by 10, move the decimal point one place to the left. For example:

0.7

700

7,000

So, for any decimal, when you move the decimal point one place to the right, you multiply that number by 10.

Answer:

The required proportion is $\frac{p}{100}=\frac{24.50-17.95}{24.50}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The price of a recipe-book was reduced from $24.50 to$17.95.

The original price is 24.50

Reduced price is 17.95.

Let p represents the percent decrease in price of the book.

$\text{Percent decrease}=\frac{\text{Original price-Reduced price}}{\text{Original price}}\times 100$

Now substitute the respective values in the above formula.

$p=\frac{24.50-17.95}{24.50}\times 100$

$\frac{p}{100}=\frac{24.50-17.95}{24.50}$

Hence, the required proportion is $\frac{p}{100}=\frac{24.50-17.95}{24.50}$ .
