Question
Decrease: 50 by 12.5 %
✓
Answer
Decrease on 50 by $12.5 \%=50 \times \frac{12.5}{100}$
$=\frac{50 \times 125}{10 \times 100}=\frac{25}{4}=6.25 \%$
$\therefore$ Decreased number $=50-6.25=43.75$
$=\frac{50 \times 125}{10 \times 100}=\frac{25}{4}=6.25 \%$
$\therefore$ Decreased number $=50-6.25=43.75$
