Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So Blakes sleep 8 hours per night during the school day

8 hours/night...................................100%

6.5 hours/night...................................?

6.5*100/8=81.25

the change in percentage is 100-81.25=18.75%

the percentage change is 18.75

if it is easier for you, another method is:

8-6.5=1.5 subtract the original amount to the new amount

1.5/8=0.1875 divide by the original amount

0.1875*100=18.75 find the percentage
