Given:

Sales of Brand X in 2007 = 950

Sales of Brand X in 2009 = 800

Formula Used:

Percentage decrease = \(\dfrac{\text{Original Value - New Value}}{\text{Original Value}} \times 100\)

Calculation:

Percentage decrease = \(\dfrac{800 - 950}{950} \times 100\)

⇒ Percentage decrease = \(\dfrac{150}{950} \times 100\)

⇒ Percentage decrease = 15.78%

∴ The percentage of sales decreased for Brand X T-shirt in 2009 compared with 2007 is 15.78%.
