Answer:
The percentage decrease in the depth is 45%
Step-by-step explanation:
January, lake depth = 1086 feet
august, lake depth = 597.3 feet
The decrease in depth = 1086 - 597.3
= 488.7 feet
Percentage decrease = decrease over January lake depth multiply by 100%
% decrease = (488.7/1086)*100%
=0.45*100%
= 45%
