Suppose the population of a certain city is 5700 thousand. It is expected to decrease to 4823 thousand in 50 years. Find the percent decrease

Sagot :

In order to find the percent decrease, we just need to divide the population decrease by the total population.

So we have that:

[tex]\text{percentage}=\frac{4823000}{5700000}=\frac{4823}{5700}=0.8461=84.61\text{\%}[/tex]

So the percent decrease of the population is 84.61%
