Answer:

percent decrease = 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of an item yesterday = $115

Today the price of the item has dropped to = $46

The percent decrease = [tex]\frac{46}{115}\times 100[/tex]

                                     = 0.40 × 100

                                     = 40%

The percent decrease would be 40%.
