Verified Answer :

50 points decreased by 26% is 37, because to find the percentage, all you have to do is multiply the number you are trying to decrease the percentage of, and take the percentage as a decimal form and multiply the two. Then, you have to subtract that number from the base to get your final answer. :)

50 points decreased by 26%

\(= 50 - 26\%(50)\)

\(= 50 - \frac{26}{100} \times 50\)

\(= 50 - \frac{26}{10} \times 5\)

\(= 50 - \frac{26}{2}\)

\(= 50 - 13\)

\(= 37\)
