Question

In the 2006 season, Tom Brady threw for 3,529

yards. In the 2007 season, he threw for 2,806
yards. What is the percentage decrease

Answer 1

59.02%

Explanation:

SO SORRY THAT THIS IS LATE anyway what you is minus the biggest number by the smallest number which would be 3,529 - 2,806 = 723

BECAUSE 3,529 is the original number you would do 723 / 3,529 = 0.5902521

then you would times that number by 100

0.5902521 x 100 = 59.02%

hope this helps

Answer 2

20.4873901955% decrease
3529-2806=723
(723/35290)x100= 20.4873901955

First, work out the difference (decrease) between the two numbers you are comparing. Next, divide the decrease by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. If the answer is a negative number, this is a percentage increase.
