Question

Laketown had 215 inches of snowfall last year, but only 155 inches this year. What was the percent decrease in snowfall for Laketown to the nearest percent? A. 28% B. 39% C. 72% D. 139%
I think A

Answer 1

Okay, so FIRST you would subtract 215 - 155, which is 60, and THEN divide it by 215, so 60 divided by 215 = 0.27, and rounded that is 0.28, then you move the decimal two places to the right to make it a percentage so your answer would be A., 28%
I hope I helped! =D
