A furniture company currently produces 7300 chairs per month. If production decreases $6 \%$, find the amount of the decrease and the new number of chairs produced each month. The amount of the decrease in the number of chairs produced each month is $\square$. The new number of chairs produced each month is $\square$.
Solution
Step 1 ：A furniture company currently produces 7300 chairs per month. If production decreases by 6%, we need to find the amount of the decrease and the new number of chairs produced each month.
Step 2 ：First, calculate the amount of decrease by finding 6% of 7300. This can be done by multiplying 7300 by 0.06.
Step 3 ：The decrease in production is \( 7300 \times 0.06 = 438 \) chairs per month.
Step 4 ：Next, subtract this decrease from the current production to find the new number of chairs produced each month.
Step 5 ：The new production is \( 7300 - 438 = 6862 \) chairs per month.
Step 6 ：Final Answer: The amount of the decrease in the number of chairs produced each month is \( \boxed{438} \). The new number of chairs produced each month is \( \boxed{6862} \).
