Answer:

6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The current cost of the coat is $376, after subtracting $24 from $400.

To find the percent decrease, we can use this equation:

  • 100( 1 - 376 ÷ 400) = PD (Percent Decrease)
  • 100(1 - 0.94)  = PD
  • 100(0.06)
  • 6

The percent decrease is 6%.

Another way of finding it is by simply dividing 24 by 400 and multiplying that by 100.
