Answer 1

20%

=============

To find the percent decrease in price, we can use the formula:

• Percent decrease = (Original price - New price) / Original price × 100%

Substituting the given values:

• Percent decrease =
• ($250 - $200) / $250 × 100% =
• $50 / $250 × 100% =
• 0.2 × 100% =
• 20%

Therefore, the percent decrease in the price of the car is 20%.
