    First find the difference in prices ...

    475 - 275 = 200 so the price went down 200 dollars. No we need to find what percentage of 475 is 200.

    475 * x = 200

    x = 200/475

    x =.4211

    Now convert to percentage by multiplying by 100 (move decimal 2 places to the right)

    .4211 = 42.11%

    It is a 42.11% price reduction.
