• 50%
• 1500

Explanation:

The table is easier to read if formatted more like a table:

Number of Weeks Avg. Number of Visits

0 48,000

1 24,000

2 12,000

3 6,000

4 3,000

__

The initial number of visits to the website was 48,000. -- the value for week 0.

The percent decrease from 4th week to 5th week was 50%. ((new/old) -1)·100% = (1500/3000 -1)·100% = -50%

The minimum number of visits on the website in the first 5 weeks since Jim began his assessment was 1,500. (the number in the 5th week)
