At the grocery store last week, small boxes of facial tissue were on sale at 4 boxes for $5. This week they mark a new price at 5 boxes for $4. What is the percent decrease in the price per box this week?

36%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the price last week, was 4 boxes for $5. Therefore, the price per box will be:

= $5/4

= $1.25 per box

This week they mark a new price at 5 boxes for $4. The price per box will be:

= $4/5

= $0.8 per box

The percent decrease in the price per box this week will be:

= (1.25 - 0.80)/1.25 × 100

= 0.45/1.25 × 100

= 36%

The Percentage decrease is 36%
