Answer:

  5% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

A percentage change can be calculated using the formula ...

  percentage change = ((new value)/(old value) -1) × 100%

Using the given population values, we can find the change to be ...

  percent change = (23221/24528 -1) × 100% = (0.947 -1) × 100%

  = -5.3% . . . . . a negative change indicates a decrease

The percentage decrease in the town's population is 5%.
