Answer:

relative humidity decreases

Explanation:

When the denominator of a fraction increases as the numerator remains the same, the value of the fraction decreases.

For example,

1/2 > 1/3

In the relation ...


RH=\frac{\text{actual moisture content}}{\text{saturation moisture content}}*100\%

The value of relative humidity (RH) will decrease when "saturation moisture content" increases.
