What is 3 percent subracted by three fourth?

Answer 1

• If you mean 3% - 3/4 then:

3% = 3/100

⇒ 3% - 3/4 = 3/100 - 3/4

= -72/100

= -72% or -18/25

• If you mean 3% reduced by 3/4, ie 3% - 3/4 of 3% then:

3% - 3/4 of 3% = 3% (1 - 3/4)

= 3% x 1/4

= 3/4 % or 0.75 %

• If you mean 3/4 - 3% of 3/4then:

3/4 - 3% of 3/4 = 3/4 - 3/100 x 3/4

= 3/4 - 9/400

= 291/400

• If you mean something else then re-ask the question being much clearer with what you do mean.
