Yesterday , the snow was 2 feet deep in front of archies house. Today, the snow depth dropped to 1.6 feet because the day is so warm.What is the percent change in the depth of the snow?

Respuesta :

earlier snow depth = 2 feet
later snow depth = 1.6 feet

change 
2 - 1.6
0.4 feet

percentage change
(0.4 / 2) * 100
20 %
80% is still left, therefor the percent change is 20%
