Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out the percent decrease of the price of the lotion, the first step is to get the amount of the decrease in price.

The lotion is normally $3.00 for the bottle.

This week, it's at $2.40 for the same bottle.

The difference is then of $0.60 per bottle.

Now, we take that $0.60 and we divide it by the original price of $3, we get:

$0.60 / $3.00 = 0.20  

So the special is a reduction of 20% from the original price of $3.00 per bottle.
