Find the percent of change. Where necessary, round to the nearest percent. Describe the percent of change as a percent of increase or decrease. 31 in. to 7 in.
A. 77%; percent of increase

B. 77%; percent of decrease

C. 23%; percent of decrease

D. 23%; percent of increase

B

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we are decreasing the number so it has to be a decrease.

Next, we divide 7/31 and get around 0.23, which also represents 23 percent.

This only shows that 7 is 23 percent of 31, so we need to find the decrease by seeing the difference of 100 and 23.

We get 100 - 23 = 77, and because it is a decrease we get B.
