Question

Find the percent of change from 688 qt to 172 qt.

Answer 1

There is 75% decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Old value = 688 qt

New value = 172 qt

Change = New value - Old value

Change = 172 - 688

Change = -516 qt

The negative sign indicates decrease.

Decrease percent = $\frac{Change}{Old\ value}*100$

Decrease percent = $\frac{516}{688}*100$

Decrease percent = $\frac{51600}{688}$

Decrease percent = 75%

There is 75% decrease.
