Answer:

5.71% is the percent decrease

Explanation:

percent decrease = (original - new)/original

percent decrease = (210-198) /210

percent decrease = 12/210

percent decrease = .057142857

multiply by 100 to change to percent

percent decrease = 5.7142857

round to 2 decimal places

5.71% is the percent decrease
