    Answer:

    Decreased percent = 41.4 % (Approx.)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given:

    Old number = 70

    New number = 41

    Find:

    Decreased percent

    Computation:

    Decreased number = 70 – 41

    Decreased number = 29

    Decreased percent = [29 / 70]100

    Decreased percent  = 41.42%

    Decreased percent = 41.4 % (Approx.)
