Question

The science club sold 25 T-shirts last week and 18 T-shirts this week. What is the percentage of decrease in the number of T-shirts sold?

Answer 1

Percent change is calculated using this formula:

\(percent~change =\dfrac{new~number - old~number}{old~number} \times 100\% \)

If the result is positive, it's a percent increase.
If the result is negative, it's a percent decrease.

In your case, the new number is 18, and the old number is 25.
Plug the numbers into the formula above and find the percent decrease.

umm this is one of those questions where theres not really a wrong answer. I would reply to is something like it is important to know because if you spend to much time on one thing it takes away time from another kind of like homework.
