This math topic focuses on calculating the percent change in problems where a number decreases, specifically in the context of discounts in shopping scenarios. Each question asks participants to find the percentage decrease in the price of an item based on its original cost versus the discounted price. The percentages involved are multiples of 10%, and the skill being practiced falls under introductory percentage calculations. This is a practical application of percentages, enhancing understanding of how discounts affect pricing.
