100 percent because it is

Answer 2

The decrease in injuries can be calculated using the formula:

Percent decrease = [(Initial amount - Final amount) / Initial amount] * 100

Here, the initial amount of injuries at the end of 2020 was 16, and the final amount at the start of 2021 was 0.

Percent decrease = [(16 - 0) / 16] * 100

Percent decrease = (16 / 16) * 100

Percent decrease = 1 * 100

Percent decrease = 100%

Therefore, the percent decrease in injuries from the end of 2020 to the start of 2021 for the cricket team was 100%.
