Answer: The new price of the car is $41856

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know the the original price as 43,600 which is 100% and is being dropped by 4% so you would have to subtract 4% from a 100% and multiply it by the original price.

100% - 4% = 96%

Now 96% of the original price is the new price.

96% * 43,600=?

0.96 * 43,600 = 41856
