Sagot :

In order to find how many robberies there were in Springfield in 2012, start writing the percentages as decimals

[tex]\begin{gathered} 100\%=1 \\ 8\%=0.08 \end{gathered}[/tex]

if it went down by 8%, it can be represented as a subtraction

[tex]1-0.08[/tex]

then, multiply by the number reported in 2011

[tex]\begin{gathered} 175\cdot(1-0.08) \\ 175\cdot0.92 \\ 161 \end{gathered}[/tex]

There were 161 robberies in 2012.
