Answer

1.7%

Explanation

Percentage decrease is found as follows:

$\text{ \% Decrease}=(-100)*\frac{final\text{ - initial}}{initial}$

In this case, the final value is $2.82 and the initial value is $2.87. Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

$\begin{gathered} \text{ \% decrease}=(-100)*(2.82-2.87)/(2.87) \\ \operatorname{\%}\text{ decrease }=(-100)*(-0.05)/(2.87) \\ \operatorname{\%}\text{ decrease }=1.7\text{ \%} \end{gathered}$
