Yes, you are correct. The price of the sofa was reduced by 30%.
Here's how you can calculate it:
Original price = $800
Reduced price = $560
Amount of reduction = $800 - $560 = $240
Percentage reduction = (Amount of reduction / Original price) x 100
Percentage reduction = ($240 / $800) x 100
Percentage reduction = 0.3 x 100
Percentage reduction = 30%
Therefore, the price of the sofa was reduced by 30%.
