One year, the population of a city was 292,000. Several years later it was 289,080. Find the percent decrease

Respuesta :

The decrease in percent for the given population of a city after several years later is equal to 1%.

As given in the question,

Population of a city (One -year ) = 292,000

After several years , population of the city  is equal to 289,080

Calculation of the decrease in percent of the population of a city

= {( Difference in the given population ) / Original population } × 100

= { ( 292,000 - 289,080 )/ 292,000} × 100

= ( 2,920 / 292,000 ) × 100

= ( 1 / 100 ) × 100

= 1%

Therefore, the decrease in percent for the given population of a city after several years later is equal to 1%.
