    B 14.3% decrease

    To find the percentage change in the number of students enrolled you do : 705 (which is the new number) - 823 (which is the old number) / 823 then the result * 100

    So I know it is confusing, sorry for that,

    but basically what you do is (new value - old value) / old value then the result of this multiplied by 100 since it is a percentage

    Toodles!
