Question

Mr. Davies opened a new retail store. During the first week, 360 customers visited the store. During the second week, 300 customers visited the store. What is the percentage change of the number of customers that visited the store in the first week to the number of customers that visited the store in the second week?

Answer 1

the answer is 16.7 because you need to do 60/360

Answer 2

The answer is 16.67%

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of customers who visited in the first week = 360

Number of customers who visited in the second week = 300

Number of customers decreased in the second week =

`360-300=60`

So, the percentage change of the number of customers that visited the store in the first week to the number of customers that visited the store in the second week will be =
`(60)/(360)*100 =16.67`
