Answer:

The answer is

<h2>5.7 \: \%</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage at which the number decreased we use the formula

<h3>Percentage \:   change (\%) =  \frac{change}{original \: quantity}  \times 100\% \\</h3>

From the question

The original number is 35

To find the change subtract the smaller number from the larger number

That's

Change = 35 - 33 = 2

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve.

That's

<h3>\% \: change  =  \frac{2}{35}  \times 100 \\  = 5.714285</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>5.7 % to the nearest tenth</h3>

Therefore the number decreased by 5.7%

Hope this helps you
