10 percent is the correct answer

Answer 2

Answer:

11.622 % is the percentage decrease of the number of visitors to Alec's website from February to March .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

$Percentage = \frac{Change\ in\ value\times 100}{Initial\ value}$

Where

Change in value = | Final value - Initial value |

As given

In February, Alec had 1,566 visitors to his website. In March, he had 1,384 visitors to his website.

Here

Final value = 1384

Initial value = 1566

Put all the values in the formula

Change in value = |1384 - 1566|

Change in value = |-182|

Change in value = 182

Thus

$Percentage = \frac{182\times 100}{1566}$

$Percentage = \frac{18200}{1566}$

Percentage = 11.622 %

Therefore the 11.622 % is the percentage decrease of the number of visitors to Alec's website from February to March .
