Answer:
There is a decrease of $1274 and Amount in account after decrease is $3926
Step-by-step explanation:
Principal = $5200
the amount in the account had decreased by 24.5%
So, decrease in amount = [tex]24.5\% \times 5200[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{24.5}{100} \times 5200[/tex]
= [tex]1274[/tex]
So, there is a decrease of $1274
Amount in account after decrease = 5200 - 1274 = $3926
Hence there is a decrease of $1274 and Amount in account after decrease is $3926
