Answer:

15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of people who went to swimming pool in the first week = 1120

In second week, there are 100 fewer people, so

Number of people who went to swimming pool in the second week = 1020

In third week, there are 140 more people, so

Number of people who went to swimming pool in the third week = 1160

In fourth week, there are 208 fewer people, so

Number of people who went to swimming pool in the fourth week = 952

To find:

Percentage decrease in the number of people who went to the pool over the four weeks?

Solution:

Initial value = 1120

Final value = 952

Decrease in the value = Final value - Initial value

Decrease in the value = 1120 - 952 = 168

To find the percentage, we need to take the initial value in the consideration.

Therefore, percentage decrease is:

\dfrac{Decrease}{Initial\ value}\times 100

\Rightarrow \dfrac{168}{1120}\times 100\\\Rightarrow \bold{15\%}
