Percent reduction of a number (5% multiples) (Level 2)

This math topic focuses on calculating the reduced amount of a number after applying varying percentages of decrease, specifically in 5% increments. The problems involve determining the final values when certain percentages (ranging from 25% to 95%) are subtracted from given numbers. Each question presents a base number and asks the student to compute the result after reducing it by a specified percentage, challenging their understanding and application of percentage reductions in practical scenarios.
