Answer:

10.59%

{(old number - new number)/old number} * 100

_________________________

given

no. of student went to the first school dance = 340

no. of student went to the last school dance = 306

Percentage of change between two dance

= ((no. of student went to the first school dance - no. of student went to the last school dance)/ no. of student went to the fist school dance)*100

= (340 - 306)/340 *100

= (36/340 )*100 = 10.59%

The percent of change between the two dances 10.59%.
