Answer 1

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of people who went to the local swimming pool in the;

first week = 1120

second week ( 105 fewer people) = 1120 - 105 = 1015

third week (135 more people) = 1015 + 135 = 1150

fourth week (310 fewer people|) = 1150 - 310 = 840

The percent decrease in the number of people who went to the pool over these four weeks

= (1120 - 840)/1120 * 100%

= 280/1120 * 100%

= 1/4 * 100%

= 25%

It means that the number of people who went to the local swimming pool over the 4 weeks decreased by 25%
