You need to find what percentage the difference is of 72.  

First, subtract 60 from 72:

72-60=8

Next, divide 8 by 72:

8/72=0.1111

To convert this decimal to a percentage, multiply it by 100:

100*0.1111=11.11

The percent decrease is 11.11%.

Hope this helps!!

For this case we can model the problem as a rectangle triangle.
 We know:
 Length of the sides of the triangle
 We want to know:
 Length of the hypotenuse
 Using the Pythagorean theorem we have:
 d =  \sqrt{3^2 + 3^2}
 Rewriting the expression we have:
 d = \sqrt{2(3^2)}
 d = 3\sqrt{2}
 d = 4.2 miles
 Then, the distance that he would have saved if he travels directly is:
 3 + 3 - 4.2 = 1.8 miles

 Answer:
 
he would have saved:
 
1.8 miles
