Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

The following information can be gotten from the question regarding the number of people that went to the swimming pool are:

First week of July = 1020

Second week = 1020 - 100 = 920

Third week = 920 + 130 = 1050

Fourth week = 1050 - 132 = 918

The percentage decrease over the four weeks will be:

= (1020 - 918)/1020 × 100

= 102/1020 × 100

= 10%
