The consumption of a vegetable has decreased. The consumption per capita in 2000 was 25.2 pounds, and in 2010, the consumption dropped to 15.2 pounds. Find the percent decrease. Round to the nearest tenth of a percent.

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

The consumption of a vegetable has decreased. While the consumption per capita in 2000 was 25.2 pounds, in 2010, the consumption dropped to 15.2 pounds.

Consumption in 2000= 25.2 pounds

Consumption in 2010= 15.2 pounds

Difference in consumption=

25.2 - 15.2 = 10.0

Percentage decrease will be difference in consumption divided by original consumption in 2000 multiplied by 100. This will be:

= 10.0/25.2 × 100

= 0.4 × 100

= 40%
