If the price of gas was on average $2.35 per gallon, and this was $1.26 cheaper than a year before, what is the percent of decrease in price? (round to the nearest percent.)

35% decrease

step-by-step explanation:

1) when solving for percent decrease, remember that [(original price - new price)/original price] * 100% = percent decrease:

since you are already given the difference between the original price and new price (1.26), you can simply divide it by the original price.

* 100%

2) use a calculator to solve:

= 0.34940304709 * 100%

= 34.94034709%

3) round to the nearest percent:

= 35%

step-by-step explanation:

distance covered by pamela in 9 l of fuel = 99km

let us apply unitary method here.

distance covered by pamela in 1 l of fuel =99/9 =11 km

now let us find distance covered by pamela if she has 12 l of fuel.

distance covered in 12 l = distance covered in 1 l of fuel * 12

we know that distance covered by here in 1 l is 11 km.

so distance covered in 12 l of fuel = 11*12 = 132 km.
