Question

Amanda decreased the amount of sugar she eats every day from 150g to 25g. By what percent did Amanda decrease the amount of sugar she eats?

Answer 1

83.33%

Explanation:

Amount she eats everyday = 150g

Amount she eats now = 25g

By what percent did Amanda decrease the amount of sugar she eats?

Percentage decrease in the amount of sugar she eats = (150 g - 25g) / 150g × 100

= 125g / 150g × 100

= 0.8333333333333 × 100

= 83.33%

Percentage decrease in the amount of sugar she eats = 83.33%
