Answer:

The percentage decrease of the number of visitors to Alec's website from February to March is 14.8 %

Explanation:

Explanation:

Percent decrease is a measure of percent change, which is the extent to which something loses value.

Step 1:

Find out the difference (decrease) between the number of visitors in march and February

Decrease =number of visitors in Fe bury- Number of vsitors in march

Decrease= 1,586- 1,352

Decrease =234

Step 2:

Divide the decrease by the original number of visitors and multiply the answer by 100.

Percent decrease=
(Decrease )/( Original Number )*100

Percent decrease=
(236)/(1586)*100

Percent decrease=
0.148*100

Percent decrease =14.88
