Answer 1

Answer:

percent decrease

26%

Step-by-step explanation:

Yesterday you ran 5 miles

Today you ran 3.7 miles

The amount went down, so the percent decreased

The percent decrease = (original - new)/original * 100 %

                                      = (5-3.7)/5 * 100%

                                      = 1.3/5 * 100 %

                                      =.26 *100%

                                      = 26%

                 

Answer 2

Your percent decrease.
Because you ran 5 miles yesterday, and 3.7 miles yesterday,
As 5>3.7 your percentage decreased by 26 %

Hope it helps you
