On Sunday 845 people went to the Zoo. On Monday only 169 people went. What is the per cent decrease in the people visiting the zoo on Monday?

उत्तर

It is given that on Sunday, 845 people went to the zoo and on Monday, 169 people went.

Decrease in the number of people = 845 − 169 = 676

Percentage decrease = `("Decrease in the number of people"/"Number of people who went to zoo on sunday")%`

= `(676/845 xx 100)%`

= 80%
