To find a 28% reduction, you have to subtract 28 from 100, to get your REMAINING percentage, in this case, 72%.

From there you multiply the fraction form of your percentage (0.72) with your original number, and you will have your answer!

EXAMPLE

If there was a sale at the toy store, and a video game was 34% off its original price of $43, how much would the game cost?

100 - 34 = 66

43 x (0.66) = 28.38

The video game would cost $28.38
