Divide the number by 100 and then multiply the answer by 5. add the number with the answer.
say the number you start out with is A, and the number it becomes is B. to find the percentage, you must subtract A-B. Then divide the answer by A and multiply by 100% to get the percentage. (A-B)/A * 100% ex. 10 is the number you start with, 4 is the second number. So A=10 and B=4 10-4=6 6/10=0.6 multiply by 100% to get the percentage 60% so the percent of decrease is 60%
