dentify the percentage of change and increase or decrease 75 people to 25 people increase or decrease find the percent of change round to the nearest tenth of a percent ​

we have that

75 people represent the 100 % so

Applying proportion, find out how much percentage represent the difference (75-25=50)

so

100/75=x/50

solve for x

x=(100/75)*50

x=66.7 %

therefore

Its a decrease and the percentage of change is 66.7%
