    40

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let's use the Rule of Three Simple to answer the question this way:

    Stock price Percentage

    $ 15 100%

    $ 9 x

    15 * x = 9 * 100

    15x = 900

    x = 900/15

    x = 60

    Percentage decreased = 100 - 60

    Percentage decreased = 40

    The company's stock decreased 40 percent
