Answer: 25% decrease

Explanation:

We know that 28 dollars a share was at its 100 percent. So we can make the fraction 28/100. Equal this to 21/x.

so we have: 28/100 = 21/x

Now just cross-multiply and simplify.

And you get what x is.

You get x = 75. So to see how much it went down, we subtract 75 from 100.
