A local pizzeria sold 65 pizzas yesterday. Suppose the actual number of pizzas sold today was 60. Describe
the number of pizzas sold as a percent increase or decrease, rounded to the nearest tenth. Show your work
We need to find the difference first. 65 - 60 = 5. Now we must find what percent 5 is of 65. It is 7,7%. The number decreased, and so it is a 7,7% decrease.
