Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of people that attended the high school's football games last year was 23,125.

Total number of people that attended the high school's football games this year is 22,758. Therefore is a decrease in the number of people that attended last year when compared to this year. The decrease in the number of attendees is 23,125 - 22,758 = 367

The percent decrease in number of attendees will be

367/23125 × 100 = 1.587%
