Mary's current record for her swimming race is 120 seconds. If she can reduce her time by 5%, how many seconds less will that be?

5% of 120 is 6

120 - 6 = 114

Her time would be reduced to 114 seconds.

Hope this helps!
Since she reduce her time by 5%, 
So 
 
120 - (5% of 120)
120 - (5/100 of 120)
120 - (0.05 * 120)
120 - (6)
120 - 6 
114 seconds .   (Answer)
