Question

Rogers is decreasing the price for its 5GB phone/data plan. The original price was $65. Now the same plan is for $55. By what percent did the cost decrease?

Answer 1

Answer:

15.3846% Percentage Discount

Step-by-step explanation:

• Starting value : 65
• Final value : 55

Using formula,

⟼ $\sf Percentage\: Discount = \frac{Starting \:Value - Final\: Value}{Starting \:Value} × 100$

⟼$\sf \: \frac{65 - 55}{65} \times 100$

Substract 55 from 65

⟼ $\sf \: \frac{10}{65} \times 100$

Divide 10 by 65

⟼ $\sf \: 0.153846 \times 100$

Multiply

⟼ $\sf \: 15.384$%
