$\qquad$ ☀️ At first we need to find out the difference between 95 and 68.

$\qquad$
$\sf \longrightarrow 68 -95 \\$

$\qquad$
$\sf \longrightarrow -27$

$\qquad$ ☀️ Now, divide the number by "the starting number.

$\qquad$
$\sf \longrightarrow (-27 )/(97)$

$\qquad$
$\sf \longrightarrow -0.2842$

$\qquad$ ☀️ And finally, we have to multiply the result by 100 to get it in terms of percent.

$\qquad$
$\sf \longrightarrow -0.2842 * 100$

$\qquad$
$\red{\bf \longrightarrow -28.42℅}$
