Question

Find the percent decrease. Round to the nearest percent. From 85°F to 60°F

Answer 1

Answer:

Percent Decrease ≈ 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first find what part of 85 is 60

60/85 = 12/17

12/17 = 0.70588 ≈ 0.70 = 70%

Now, since 85 is 100%, and 60 is 70% of 85, the percent decrease is :

100% - 70% = 30%
