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%
