Hand lotion origninally cost $3.00 for 16-ounce. this week the lotion is on sale $2.40 for 16-ounce. what is the percent decrease in the price of the lotion?

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out the percent decrease of the price of the lotion, the first step is to get the amount of the decrease in price.

The lotion is normally $3.00 for the bottle.

This week, it's at $2.40 for the same bottle.

The difference is then of $0.60 per bottle.

Now, we take that $0.60 and we divide it by the original price of $3, we get:

$0.60 / $3.00 = 0.20  

So the special is a reduction of 20% from the original price of $3.00 per bottle.

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.

total amount to be paid = $19.5

step-by-step explanation:

given ,

original price = $25.99

discount = 25%

discount amount = 25% of original price

discount amount = 25/100   * 25.99

discount amount = $6.49

hence , the total amount to be paid = original price - discount amount

                                                            = $25.99 - $6.49

                                                            =$19.5

total amount to be paid = $19.5
