Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage decrease = 35% × 175
New value =
175 - Percentage decrease =
175 - (35% × 175) =
175 - 35% × 175 =
(1 - 35%) × 175 =
(100% - 35%) × 175 =
65% × 175 =
65 ÷ 100 × 175 =
65 × 175 ÷ 100 =
11,375 ÷ 100 =
113.75
Answer:
decrease of weight = original weight - ( percentage x original weight)
= 175 kg - (0.35 x 175 kg)
= 175 kg - 61.25 kg
= 113.75 kg
