Pregunta 40

Which calculations correctly give the final amount after decreasing 500 by 12%? Select all that apply.

  1. 500 x 0.88 = 440Respuesta correcta
  2. 500 x 0.12 = 60
  3. 500 - 60 = 440Respuesta correcta
  4. 500 - 12 = 488

Explicación

A 12% decrease leaves 88%, so 500 x 0.88 = 440; equivalently, the reduction is 0.12 x 500 = 60 and 500 - 60 = 440. Using 60 alone reports the removed part, while subtracting 12 treats a percent as a fixed amount.
