Answer:

16%

Step-by-step explanation:

say the percent decrease = x. Then

x/100 x 250 = 210.

x/2 x 5 = 210

x/2 = 210/5

x/2 = 42

x = 42 x 2

x = 84.....

BUT this is not the answer. We need 100-84=16 for the answer.

So the bike dropped 16%. Thank me later :)
250 • 0.2= 50
20% of is the advertisement
