Let's find the absolute difference first: 3.75-3.50 = 0.25 .

Now, we must ask ourselves: which percentage of 3.75 is 0.25? Since we compute the x percent of 3.75 by multiplying it by $\cfrac{x}{100}$ , we are posing the following question:

$3.75\cdot\cfrac{x}{100} = 0.25$

Solving for , we have

$x = \cfrac{0.25\cdot 100}{3.75} = \cfrac{25}{3.75} = 6.\overline{6}$

So, the price decreased by the $6.7\%$
