Alex, this is the solution to the exercise:

If the original amount is 320 and the end amount is 112, this is a decrease.

Now, let's estimate the percentage, as follows:

• Difference = Original amount - End amount

,

• Difference = 320 - 112

,

• Difference = 208

In consequence,

• Percentage of decrease = Difference/Original amount * 100

,

• Percentage of decrease = 208/320 * 100

,

• Percentage of decrease = 0.65 * 100

,

• Percentage of decrease = 65%
