Answer:
8 out of 84: 90% decrease
200 out of 238: 16% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
To find a percent decrease, you first subtract the end number by the initial number. This gives you the change.
ex. 84-8=76
Now you divide the change by the initial number. You'll get a decimal.
ex. 76/84=0.904...
Multiply the decimal times 100, or move the decimal to the right twice.
ex. 0.904... -> 90.4...
Now round to the nearest ones place
ex. 90.4 -> 90%
