The price of a pair of jeans was reduced from $20 to $15. By what
percentage was the price of the jeans reduced? *


Sagot :

Answer: 25%

Explanation:
1. Turn it into a fraction (15/20)
2. Divide the numerator (15) by the denominator (20). (15÷20=0.75)
3. Subtract 0.75 from 1 (1-0.75=0.25)
4. Turn 0.25 into a percentage by taking away the “0.” and adding a “%” at the end (25%)
