12. Originally, the shirt was priced at $25, but it's now marked down to $20. Let's determine the percentage decrease in price.
Correct Incorrect The price dropped by $5 in absolute terms (25-20=5). To find the percentage decrease, divide this difference by the original price (5/25) and multiply by 100, yielding 20%. Hence, the original price has undergone a 20% reduction.
