Question

There were 28 boys on the boy's basketball team and 16 girls on the girl's basketball team last year. This year the number of boys decreased by 8% but the number of girls increased by 19%. Was there an increase or decrease in overall participation?

Answer 1

I’m pretty sure it decreased, apologies if I got this wrong

The sum of participants last year was 44 students, but this year was only 37.80 participants.
