Please help if you can, no links please! At a local department store, shirts typically cost $16. However, due to a special, the shirts are reduced to $12. What percent of the original price has the shirts been reduced to?

$12 is % of $16.

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1: 100 ÷ 16 = 6.25

STEP 2: 12 x 6.25 =  75

              16 x 6.25 = 100

Now we can see that our fraction is 75/100, which means that 12/16 as a percentage is 75%.

We can also work this out in a simpler way by first converting the fraction 12/16 to a decimal. To do that, we simply divide the numerator by the denominator:

12/16 = 0.75

Once we have the answer to that division, we can multiply the answer by 100 to make it a percentage:

0.75 x 100 = 75%

hope this helps!

step-by-step explanation:

stew:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (2650-795)/(10-3)

    = 1855/7

connie:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have two points (0,0) and (4,800)

m = (800-0)/(4-0)

  m = 800/4
