B is going to be where A is
The plumber worked for 5 hours because 450-200=250 which gets rid of the initial fee so 250 divided by 50 is 5
So what will it be a percentage of? it will be the percentage of the original recruits, of the original 150.
for this, we need to divide the number of recruits that left over all recruits, and multiply by 100%:
so the number of trainees decreased by 20 %
Answer: Multiplying and Dividing Decimals by Powers of 10
When you divide a decimal by a power of 10, simply move the decimal place to the left as many places as there are 0s in the power of 10.
So if 360 is increased by 25%, you would end up with 450 (360 x 1.25), than if the result, 450 is decreased by 50% ( 450 x .50 = 225) (450 - 225 = 225) you would end up with 225.
