For this case, we propose a rule for three:

27,000 -----------> 100%

22,900 -----------> x

Where "x" represents the percentage associated with 22,900.

[tex]x = \frac {22,900 * 100} {27,000}\\x = 84.8148148148[/tex]

Now we look for the percentage of decrease:

100% -84.8148148148% = 15.1851851852%

Rounding off we have:

15.19%

Answer:

15.19%
