At the beginning of a chemistry experiment, the volume of liquid in a container was 3.2 milliliters. During the experiment, the volume dropped to milliliters. Find the percent of decrease.

Sagot :

The percentage decrease is 43.75%

How to calculate the percentage?

Initial volume = 3.2 millimeters

After experiment volume = 1.8 millimeters

Reduction = 3.2 - 1.8 = 1.4 millimeters

Therefore the percentage decrease will be:

= Reduction/Initial value × 100

= 1.4/3.2 × 100

= 43.75%

Therefore, the percentage decrease is 43.75%
