Find the percentage decrease.

Respuesta :

Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Initial grains of rice = 250

The final amount of grains of rice = 175

We need to find the percentage decrease in the amount of grains. The percentage decrease in the value is given by :

[tex]\%=\dfrac{250-175}{250}\times 100\\\\=30\%[/tex]

So, the percentage decrease is 30%.
