Question 1019972: Due to lack of funding, the number of students enrolled at city college went from 9000 last year to 3000 this year. Find the percent decrease in enrollment. Answer by mathclassesonline(3) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! So we have:9000-3000=6000 the decrease amount of students
We need to find out how many percents from 9000 students represents 6000
9000 students ............ 100%
6000 students ............ ???%
And we get : ???%=(6000*100%)/9000=66.666666667%
